The Orlando Apollos: A Shooting Star in the AAF Sky
The Orlando Apollos were a beacon of promise in the short-lived Alliance of American Football (AAF). Coached by the legendary Steve Spurrier, the team showcased an explosive offense and a rock-solid defense, making them one of the most exciting teams to watch in the league.
Their name and colors, inspired by the Greek god Apollo and Florida's sunny climate, resonated with fans. With a home ground at the Spectrum Stadium in Orlando, the Apollos were the epitome of Florida's vibrant sports culture.
Though the league folded in 2019, the Apollos left an indelible mark on the hearts of their fans. They were the last undefeated team in the AAF's inaugural season, proving that even a shooting star can leave a lasting impression.
