History

The St. Louis Gunners, an independent professional football team, based in St. Louis, Missouri played the last 3 games of the 1934 National Football League season, replacing the Cincinnati Reds on the league schedule after the Reds were suspended from NFL membership. They won their first game against the Pittsburgh Pirates (now Steelers) 6-0, but lost the last two to the Detroit Lions (40-7) and the Green Bay Packers (21-14). A few of the Reds players joined the team for the last two games.
