Founded in 1898 in Chicago, the Arizona Cardinals are the NFL’s longest-running franchise, a charter member since 1920 and a proud fixture of the Valley today. The Cards claim NFL championships from 1925 and 1947, plus a dramatic Super Bowl XLIII appearance powered by a 2008 season surge. Generations of fans have watched the team evolve from Chicago to St. Louis to Arizona, carrying a resilient identity.
Iconic
names include Larry Fitzgerald and Pat Tillman, with unforgettable moments like
Fitzgerald’s late go-ahead sprint in Super Bowl XLIII and the 2015 overtime
thriller against Green Bay. Home games at State Farm Stadium in Glendale
deliver indoor comfort, a retractable roof, and a roll-in natural grass field.
The Red Sea packs the building in scarlet, creating a loud, welcoming
atmosphere that turns every Sunday into a desert celebration.
