	Vulcan statue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Vulcan statue of Birmingham, Alabama, is the largest cast iron statue in the world and the symbol of the city.
		Vulcan was eventually re-erected at the Alabama State Fairgrounds, but the statue's arms were installed incorrectly, and he was without his spear, which had been lost en route from St. Louis.
		Vulcan was removed during 1999 for a $14 million renovation process that saw the park and pedestal restored to its original 1938 appearance.

	Birmingham Americans - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 1975 entry in the WFL was known as the Birmingham Vulcans.
		When the league folded, Birmingham, and Memphis, attempted to get admitted into the NFL for the 1976 season, although unlike the similar and more extensive effort in Memphis which involved actual cash deposits toward season tickets it seemed to consist mainly of getting fans to sign a "statement of support" somewhat similar to a petition.
		When the Memphis effort failed, Vulcans followers were forced to accept the inevitable as well, and efforts to get the team admitted as an NFL franchise were abandoned.

	Vulcan statue - Dangeruss-Industries.com
		To celebrate Birmingham's centenary, the area around the statue was given a million-dollar facelift in 1971.
		Vulcan was removed during 1999 for a $14 million renovation process which saw the park and pedestal restored to its original 1938 appearance.
		The city's entry in the World Football League, The Birmingham Vulcans[?] was named for the statue, though often assumed incorrectly to be a reference to the race of Vulcans on Star Trek.

	BIRMINGHAM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Birmingham suffered heavy bomb damage during World War II, and partly as a result of this the city centre was extensively re-developed during the 1950s and 1960s, with many concrete office buildings, ring-roads, and now much-derided pedestrian subways.
		Birmingham's eleven constituencies are represented in the House of Commons by one Conservative, one Liberal Democrat, and 9 Labour MPs.
		Birmingham is also the hub for various national ethnic media, testifying to the diversity of the metropolitan city.

	Vulcans vs Hawaii (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Birmingham Vulcans took care of business in Hawaii, enjoying the sun and sights, and then defeated the Hawaiians in a business-like fashion 29-16.
		Birmingham’s offensive line gave Vulcan running backs Art Cantrelle and Johnny Musso big holes and room to run as the tandem combined for 163 yards rushing.
		Birmingham foiled the AP attempt again, but went into the locker room at halftime trailing 16-8.

	WFL
		I'm not sure whether the Vulcans are associated with the Americans of 1974.
		I suspect the Vulcans used gray facemasks that were painted blue (see the Philadelphia Bell below), and the paint had worn off when some photos were taken, or some players never had the masked painted in the first place.
		Despite quality franchises in Birmingham, Memphis, Florida, and Southern California, other teams were floundering, moving to other cities mid-season or folding all together.

	Site Purpose (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		As I grew up the Ams and Vulcans were relegated to the archives of my “football mind” until I happened upon a picture in an antique shop.
		I looked at it for a bit then realized it was a color picture of The Americans vs. Florida Blazers in the World Bowl in 1974.
		I was gleeful that night and it began a quest, of sorts, for more information, pictures, film footage, etc. on the old team.

		A round robin playoff tournament between first-place Montgomery, third-place Nashville and fourth-place Birmingham (the second-place club, Jackson declined to participate due to player injuries) began on March 5 with Nashville and Montgomery advancing to the league championship series.

		The league's postseason tournament was cancelled just prior to the conclusion of the regular season and the league disbanded after the season ended.

		The Birmingham Vulcans started the 1975 season in a rather lackluster fashion, squaring away a rather sloppy 10-0 win the Chicago Winds.
		The Vulcan defense was stellar holding Chicago scoreless and generally dominating the entire game.
		On Birmingham’s next possession, Chicago partially blocked the Vulcan punt and recovered at the home team’s 33.

		May I remind you of the Birmingham Americans, The Birmingham Vulcans, The Birmingham Stallions and of course The Birmingham Thunderbolts.
		People in Stinkingham don't have what it takes (financially and as far as civic pride is concerned)to even get the NFL to look your way.
		You had a good thing in The Birmingham Bulls until you ran that in the ground.
