Birmingham StallionsThe Birmingham Stallions were a franchise in the United States Football League, an attempt to establish a second professional league of American football in the United States in competition with the National Football League. They played their home games at Birmingham, Alabama's Legion Field. They competed in all three USFL seasons, 1983-1985, and seemed to be one of the league's better-run and more viable franchises, an organization which could have had a chance to have succeeded if the USFL organization as a whole had been better-funded and better-run. One of their better-known players was former Pittsburgh Steelers backup quarterback Cliff Stoudt, who had won four Super Bowl rings with his former team, literally without having ever taken a snap in either a regular season or playoff game. He proved to be quite talented when given a chance to play, as did many other Stallions players, some of whom went on to have at least brief careers in the NFL once the USFL went out of existence.
