The Mississippi Fire Dogs are a defunct indoor football team from Biloxi, Mississippi . They played their home games at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum . They began play in the Indoor Professional Football League (a reincarated PIFL ) in 1999 as a charter member. During their first two years, the Fire Dogs went 9-7 and third in the league, yet it was their second season that proved to be a glorious year by winning the IPFL championship title. When the IPFL folded, the Fire Dogs joined the new National Indoor Football League as a charter member and won the inaugural Indoor Bowl against the Wyoming Cavalry . However, they couldn't repeat the same success in 2002. Afterwards, the franchise folded. During the 1999 & 2000 IPFL seasons, the most notable member for the Fire Dogs was head coach/player QB John Fourcade , formerly of the NFL New Orleans Saints . The Fire Dogs were owned in part by Irvin Favre , the late Father of legendary Green Bay Packers Quarterback Brett Favre . Irvin Favre died of a Heart Attack while driving in December 2003 .
