I guess I don't understand the question. I don't recall there ever being an NFL, NBA, MLB or NHL team in Las Vegas, Virginia Beach, Austin, Riverside, Richmond, Birmingham or Louisville. Still, I got 50% right. Good question...confusing answers.

@graphicggh Okay you got me on Louisville, but I changed the note to read "since 1900." Unfortunately, I don't think many people recognize the Louisville Colonels' glory days in the 1880's.

The previous version of the Ottawa Senators won the Stanley Cup in 1926-27. The Vancouver Millionaires also won the cup in 1914-15 but they were part of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association at the time, when other leagues were allowed to compete for the cup. The Providence Steam Rollers won the NFL Championship in 1928. Good quiz otherwise!

I agree with Zico. Remove Vancouver, Ottawa, Providence, and New Orleans.
