This past weekend the Birmingham Stallions edged out the Philadelphia Stars to win the inaugural USFL Championship. The game was hosted at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium, serving as a nuetral location for the semifinals and championship.
Since the franchise claimed the trphy we’ve received a lot of questions on if Birmingham would host a championship parade for the Stallions.
Well, if you were one of those folks, we have some good news.
Ronald Gaines Jr. reports that Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin has confirmed that a parade will take place. At the time of publication the date is still to be determined.
