The
Million Dollar Game was the
XFL's championship game at the end of its only season in 2001. At first it had no special name, then was going to be called "The Big Game at the End", but eventually received the name it ended up with because a pot of one million dollars was to be split among the players of the winning team (with each team having 38 players, each player would receive approximately $26,316 for winning). The game was played on Saturday April 21, 2001 at the
LA Memorial Coliseum.
