Tupelo FireAnts

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Tupelo FireAnts were a professional indoor football team that played their home games at the BancorpSouth Center in Tupelo, Mississippi. They started off as a charter member of the National Indoor Football League. Despite two seemingly good records in 2001 and 2004, they failed to make the playoffs. After 2004, they move to the UIF and became a charter member. However, after their horrendous 2005 season, the FireAnts disbanded. Tupelo, Mississippi would be without an arena football team until the 2007 arrival of the AIFA Mississippi Mudcats.
