The Las Vegas Gladiators were the second of three Arena Football League franchises to try to set up shop in Sin City. The Glads followed the Las Vegas Sting (1994-1995) and preceded the Las Vegas Outlaws debacle (2015) fronted by Motley Crue lead singer Vince Neil.
The New Jersey Gladiators were an Arena Football League promotion that competed for two poorly attended seasons at the old Continental Airlines Arena in the Meadowlands in 2001 and 2002. The franchise was previously known as the Red Dogs from 1997 thru 2000, named thru a sponsorship with the briefly popular beer brand of the late 1990’s.
