Team history

The Butte Daredevils were named in honor of Butte native Evel Knievel. Their logo, featuring a motorcycle helmet and patriotic flag, makes reference to him.[1] The team was owned by Apex Sportstainment, who also owned the Utah Eagles and Great Falls Explorers in 2006.[2]

In January 2008, it was announced that the franchise was in an undisclosed amount of debt due to low crowd figures and business sponsorships.[3]

The team folded in August 2008 via a letter to the Montana Standard newspaper after months of speculation.
