before the 2001 season began there was already question if las vegas could support a professional sports team due to past failed attempts with: las vegas americans (soccer-misl- 1984-85), las vegas dustdevils (soccer-cisl-1994-1995), las vegas posse (football-cfl-1994) las vegas quicksilvers (soccer-nasl-1976-1978), las vegas seagulls (soccer-asl-1979), las vegas sting (football-arena football league-1994-1995) and las vegas thunder (ihl-1993-1999) the outlaws were sponsored by cox communications, new york-new york hotel & casino, station casinos, pacificare health systems and findlay toyota. just like the posse (and the later locomotives), the outlaws had a difficult time selling tickets. for the home opener against the hitmen 13,700 tickets were sold for a stadium that seats 36,000. there were only 7,000 estimated season ticket holders. compared to the rest of the league, the outlaws' attendance was about average, at 22,000 fans per game. they were one of two teams (the league-leading san francisco demons being the other) to consistently play in a stadium that was more than half full. the league leading defense lead by defensive coordinator mark criner was nicknamed "the dealers of doom."

the royal palm hotel was a large resort hotel built by railroad magnate henry flagler in miami, florida. opened on january 16, 1897, the royal palm hotel was one of the first hotels in the miami area. it sat on the north bank of the miami river where it overlooked biscayne bay. five stories tall with a sixth-floor salon, the royal palm hotel featured the city's first electric lights, elevators and swimming pool. almost thirty years later, the royal palm hotel was grievously damaged by the 1926 hurricane, and infested with termites. in 1930, it was condemned and torn down.the hotel was built on the site of a tequesta village. a large mound was removed to make way for the hotel veranda. between 50 and 60 skulls were found in the mound, and tossed into barrels and sinkholes. some were later given away as souvenirs. construction crews also removed evidence of the spanish mission and slave plantation that existed on the site decades earlier.
