Another sports trivia quiz...
Permalink Closed


Without googling, name the 7 US-based teams that graced the CFL in the odd expansion which finally made the Roughriders - Rough Riders joke look small in comparison....

As a bonus, what was the last match between a CFL and an NFL team?

Las Vegas Posse, Baltimore CFl'ers, Shreveport Pirates. those are the only 3 I can remember. I think the last game was a Grey cup game between B.C. and Baltimore. I think that B.C. won

The last game between a CFL team and an NFL team

but you got 3 right, although bonus points for the two other names the Baltimore team went by...

And extra bonus for the only American team to win the Grey cup

Baltimore was the only American team to win the cup.  2 of the names they used were Colts and Stallions.  They beat the BC Lions.


I also remember a Sacramento/San Antonio Goldminers, Birmingham had a team (Barracudas comes to mind but i think thats wrong), Las Vegas Posse, Shreveport Pirates,


Thats all i can get.


As for CFL/NFL matchup didn't the Ticats play the Bills in the 60s, (guessing on that one).

I remember once (in the 80's, I think) there was an exhibition touch-football game between (again, I think) all-star teams from the NFL vs. CFL.


The only thing I remember for sure is that the CFL won!

Las Vegas Posse, Birmingham Barracudas, Baltimore Stallions, San Antonio Texans, Sacramento GoldMiners, Shreveport Pirates and the Memphis MadDogs.

And I believe the last game was Argos against the Bills, I think the Argos won too!
