Dodge City Legend

The Dodge City Legend was a professional basketball franchise in the United States Basketball League, a minor league that played in the spring. The Legend won three USBL titles, in 2000, its first season, 2003 and in 2005.

The Legend drew fans from surrounding towns, such as Garden City and Liberal. They played their home games at the Dodge City Civic Center.

The Legend's colors were purple, black and silver. The nickname came from the cowtown history of Dodge City, which has been immortalized in numerous feature films and the television program, Gunsmoke.

Famous quotes containing the words dodge, city and/or legend:

    Perhaps anxious politicians may prove that only seventeen white men and five negroes were concerned in the late enterprise; but their very anxiety to prove this might suggest to themselves that all is not told. Why do they still dodge the truth? They are so anxious because of a dim consciousness of the fact, which they do not distinctly face, that at least a million of the free inhabitants of the United States would have rejoiced if it had succeeded. They at most only criticise the tactics.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A suburb is an attempt to get out of reach of the city without having the city be out of reach.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.
    Willis Goldbeck (1900–1979)
