The Louisiana VooDoo are a professional arena football team based in Lafayette, Louisiana. They are members of the Arena Football League and will play their home games at Blackham Coliseum in Lafayette starting in 2024.
This team is the latest incarnation formerly known as the New Orleans VooDoo with the original and second incarnations being members of the East Division of the American Conference of the AFL and played their home games in Smoothie King Center at different times between 2004 and 2015. The VooDoo were unrelated to an earlier AFL team, the New Orleans Night, who had competed in the 1991 and 1992 AFL seasons in the Louisiana Superdome.
The original New Orleans VooDoo played in the AFL from 2004 to
2008, at which point the league suspended operations. During that time
they were owned in part by Tom Benson, who also owned the National Football League's New Orleans Saints.
At the completion of the 2008 season, VooDoo owner Tom Benson
announced the disbanding of the VooDoo. This led to the termination of
operations for the AFL and ultimate filing by the League of Chapter 11
Bankruptcy. The minor league affiliate of the AFL, af2, continued play through the 2009 season.
In the Fall of 2009, several af2 owners, Paul Ross of the Tulsa Talons, Dan Newman of the Bossier-Shreveport Battle Wings, and Brady Nelson of the Spokane Shock, spearheaded in conjunction with Brett Bouchy, former owner of the AFL's Arizona Rattlers and Orlando Predators,
a move to purchase the assets of the AFL out of Bankruptcy. This
successful transaction resulted in the reformation of the AFL for the
2010 season. Prior to the 2010 season, the af2 league terminated
operations. Several af2 teams chose to move into the AFL, including the
Talons, BattleWings, Iowa Barnstormers, Spokane Shock, Tennessee Valley Vipers, and Boise Burn.
Prior to the 2011 AFL season, several AFL teams relocated: The Talons
moved from Tulsa to San Antonio; the Vipers moved from Huntsville,
Alabama to Atlanta, Georgia, and reactivated the Georgia Force; the
BattleWings left Bossier City for New Orleans and reactivated the New
Orleans VooDoo. Legendary AFL player/coach Derek Stingley coached the VooDoo for the 2011 season and was replaced in 2012 by longtime AFL quarterback and coach Pat O'Hara. In 2015, the VooDoo's final season, Dean Cokinos was the head coach. At the completion of the 2015 season, the New Orleans VooDoo ceased operations.
The VooDoo's official mascots were known as Bones and Mojo. Their cheerleaders were known as the VooDoo Dolls.
