Oorang Indians
The Oorang Indians were a team in the National Football League from La Rue, Ohio (near Marion). La Rue is the smallest town ever to have hosted an NFL franchise. The team was named after the Oorang dog kennels. It was a novelty team put together by the kennels' owner, Walter Lingo, for marketing purposes. It was literally an all-Native American team-- Jim Thorpe being its leading player. They played the 1922 and 1923 NFL seasons. Of the 20 games they played over two seasons, only one was played at "home", this being in nearby Marion.
