Atlanta Chiefs (1979-1981)
May 12, 2013
A rare misfire for sports & media mogul Ted Turner. This 1979-1981 edition of the Atlanta Chiefs pro soccer team was actually a resurrection of an earlier club, also known as the Atlanta Chiefs, that played in the city from 1967 to 1972. Both editions of the Chiefs were tied into the Major League Baseball’s Atlanta Braves through common ownership (hence the Native American-themed identity).
