FS 1975 World Football League Shreveport Steamer Full Set of 8 Tickets
Eight home game tickets of the 1975 Shreveport Steamer, one of the ill-fated franchises in the World Football League.
The Steamer franchise began the 1974 season in Houston, Texas, as the Houston Texans (no connection to the current NFL team of the same name), playing their home games at the Houston Astrodome. Toward the end of the season, the team relocated to Shreveport, Louisiana, and became the Shreveport Steamer. They played at the 30,000-seat State Fair Stadium, now named Independence Stadium. Larry King, of future CNN fame, was one of their broadcasters.
The Steamer showcased a number of veterans and a few rookies. Among them were ambidextrous quarterback and former University of Houston star D. C. Nobles and several American Football League veterans - QB Mike Taliaferro. fullback Jim Nance, wide receiver Don Maynard, tight end Willie Frazier, former Houston Oiler and All-AFL tackle Glen Ray Hines and linebacker John Villapiano, brother of Oakland Raiders defender Phil Villapiano.
Not easy to find all 8 tickets, but here they are for $25.00, just over $3 each and I'll pay the postage. Payment via check, cash or money order. PM with any questions.
