The Denver Outlaws are a Major League Lacrosse (MLL) professional men's field lacrosse team based in Denver, Colorado. They began playing in the MLL in 2006 as an expansion team. From 2006 to 2008, they were in the Western Conference. With the MLL contraction in the 2009 season from 10 to 6 teams (due to the state of the U.S. economy), there is currently now only one conference.

Franchise history

The Outlaws had their inaugural game on May 20, 2006 versus the Chicago Machine at INVESCO Field at Mile High. The game was played in front of a Major League Lacrosse record crowd of 13,167 (the record was broken again later that year at another Denver home game which drew 15,981), where the Outlaws won 24-14. [1] The Outlaws won the Western Conference championship in their first season.

On June 16, 2007, the Rochester Rattlers won a 27-26 (in overtime) game over the Outlaws in the highest scoring game in MLL history at INVESCO Field at Mile High.

On July 4, 2007, Denver set the world professional lacrosse attendance record (indoor and outdoor) when 19,793 [2] people came to see the 4th of July fireworks game against Chicago. Denver won the game 22-14. This broke the previous record, set in Denver's 2006 Independence Day weekend game against the Los Angeles Riptide.

The Outlaws broke their own attendance record once again on July 4, 2008 as 20,116 people saw the Outlaws defeat the San Francisco Dragons 10-9.

The Outlaws broke their attendance record again on July 4, 2009 with 21,952 attendants. They lost the game 17 to 16 against the Boston Cannons.

The Outlaws broke their attendance record again on July 4, 2010 with 23,443 attendants. They won the game 12 to 10 against the Chesapeake Bayhawks.

Denver hosted the 2008 Major League Lacrosse All-Star Game in front of 10,124 people, with the Western Conference defeating the Eastern Conference 31-15.
