The Arizona Cardinals became an organization in 1898, when the Morgan Athletic Club was formed. Over the next 45 years, the team would go through many name changes, starting in 1899 when they became known as the Racine Normals. According to the Pro Football Hall of Fame website, Chris O'Brien, the man who originally formed the franchise, purchased used jerseys from the University of Chicago that were a faded maroon red. He described the color as "Cardinal Red," and because they played their games on Racine Street, he decided to change the team's name to the Racine Street Cardinals. From that point forward the team would forever be known as the "Cardinals."

When the NFL was formed in 1920, the Arizona Cardinals (then known as the Chicago Cardinals) became a charter member of the start-up football league. According to Wikipedia, they, along with the Dectur Staleys (now the Chicago Bears), are the only charter members that are still in existence. In the history of the Arizona Cardinals franchise, they have won 2 NFL Championships, both of which occurred when they were known as the Chicago Cardinals. The first came in 1925 when they beat the Pottsville Maroons, and the second came in 1947 when they beat the Philadelphia Eagles.

People in Arizona first got their chance to buy Arizona Cardinals tickets in 1988 when the team moved from St. Louis to Phoenix. Known as the Phoenix Cardinals from 1988-1993, they did not experience much success, finishing with a record of 32-64. They then officially became known as the Arizona Cardinals in 1994.
