Maniax Primary Logo

The Memphis Maniax was one of the eight original teams in the XFL, a professional football league that ran from 2001 to 2002. The team was based in Memphis, Tennessee and its primary logo featured a black and yellow shield with three stars inside it. This logo has become iconic for its use during the short-lived XFL era and is still remembered fondly by many fans today.

The design of this primary logo was inspired by several sources including traditional heraldic symbols used throughout Europe as well as Native American art styles found in the southeast United States region where Memphis is located. The designers wanted to create something unique but also familiar so they combined these two elements into one cohesive design which resulted in what we now know as the classic “Memphis Maniax” emblem.

This iconic symbol has been used on various merchandise over time such as hats, shirts, and other apparel items associated with both current fan support for nostalgia purposes alike; although most recently it can be seen being worn proudly at events hosted by local sports organizations or even just around town while showing off some hometown pride! It's clear that despite only lasting one season, this memorable emblem will continue to live on long after those who created it have gone their separate ways - proving once again that good things really do come out of tough times like those experienced during an XFL season!
