Arizona Cardinals history
The story starts in Chicago in 1898 with the Morgan Athletic Club. The team became an NFL charter member on September 17, 1920, and no pro football franchise in the country has run longer without a break. It and the Bears are the last founding clubs still going.
A move to St. Louis came in 1960, where locals called the team the Big Red, the Gridbirds or the Football Cardinals to separate it from the baseball club. Before the 1988 season it headed to Tempe, Arizona, spending 18 seasons on the Arizona State campus at Sun Devil Stadium. Since 2006 home has been in Glendale. Summer camp ran at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff from 1988 to 2012, except for 2005.
