[edit] History
[edit] Memphis Pharaohs (1995-1996)
The Memphis Pharaohs, who had played at the Pyramid Arena in Memphis in 1995 and 1996, relocated to Portland, Oregon after a winless (0-14) 1996 campaign.
[edit] Portland Forest Dragons (1997-1999)
After three seasons in Portland (1997-1999), the luckless franchise relocated again, this time to Oklahoma City. The move happened after the franchise owner attempted and failed to sell the team to an owner committed to keeping the team in Portland.
[edit] Oklahoma Wranglers (2000-2001)
The team was known as the Oklahoma Wranglers (no relation to the current Austin Wranglers) prior to being disbanded after the 2001 season.
