The United American Football League (UAFL) (also referred as United American Professional Football League (UAPFL)) was a professional American football minor league that played in 1967. The league was an attempt by Hal Shapiro to revive professional football in Richmond, Virginia after the Richmond Rebels from the Continental Football League had folded.
The league featured five teams, but best team in the league was Shapiro's Richmond Mustangs, while the other teams talent-level was closer to a semi-pro squads. Although the Mustangs and Knoxville Bears drew good crowds, the league folded after only one year with large debts to the players.
The UAFL was featured in a short segment in CBS by Heywood Hale Broun.
