The Miami Hooters were a relocation of the Sacramento Attack Arena Football League team which had competed in the 1992 season. For the 1993 season the team was relocated to Miami and renamed the "Hooters" in an unusual marketing arrangement with the Florida-based restaurant chain which was ordinarily more noted for its buxom waitresses than feats of athletic prowess. Natually, the team adopted the restaurant's owlish logo and trademark colors as its own for three years, until this unusual arrangement terminated after the completion of the 1995 season. Desirous of staying in the general South Florida area, the team relocated to West Palm Beach as the Florida Bobcats. Subsequent linking of team names with products was to occur, notably the AFL's own New Jersey Red Dogs and the Detroit Neon of the Major Indoor Soccer League.
