History
This team was started in 1967 by the Krebs brothers, Goodwyn Sr, and others. More info will be posted soon, including funny quotes from the 1967 Rugby demo those guys put on at halftime of the NY Jets exhibition game at Legion Field that helped recruit the first Birmingham Rugby members. Apparently the crowd, and some of the football players, were more impressed with the Rugby. The crowd cheered for more Rugby and did not want the football to start up again.
