The team started 1975 as the Hartford Bicentennials and than changed their name before the 1976 season to the Connecticut Bicentennials. Their attendance didn't dilute as it was always bad. The team moved to Oakland in 1978 to become the Stompers for one season. In 1979 they moved to Edmonton and played as the Drillers thru 1982 before folding.

As a longtime fan of not just the team but the UFL as a whole it sucks when their commissioner, a Windsor native mind you thinks that they can do better in a new city with an unproven team. (Although there were a litany of other reasons that they decided to 'suspend operations' here but that's another subject entirely.) As long as were on the subject of football, don't forget the Hartford Blues, CT's first pro football team!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654104652793036364.post-41006256350902626932011-09-22T10:25:18.519-04:002011-09-22T10:25:18.519-04:00Enjoy this video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2...Enjoy this video! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Nkt8Ae8sCE go Hartford Hellions!tonyhttp://facebook.com/tonycarreras1noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654104652793036364.post-79314284685254369832011-09-22T09:15:00.526-04:002011-09-22T09:15:00.526-04:00Where's the love for the Hartford Hellions of ...Where's the love for the Hartford Hellions of the Major Indoor Soccer League or the New England Blizzard?Dan Schwartzhttp://www.ctemploymentlawblog.comnoreply@blogger.com
