Roanoke Valley Rampage

Rampage were owned by New York businessman Larry Revo, who bought the team from ECHL founder Henry Brabham for $250,000 in the summer of 1992
The 1992-93 Rampage put together what is considered to be one of the worst seasons in ECHL history.
The Rampage set several records that season, including fewest wins in a season (14), lowest winning percentage (.227), fewest points (29), most consecutive road losses (26), fewest road wins (2), and most road losses (29 of a possible 31), all records that are still standing in the present-day ECHL. The Rampage would also set a record for lowest average attendance in a season with an average of 1,483 fans per game.
The Rampage would also allow a league-worst 6.05 GAA and 387 goals against in 64 games
Weather eventually played a factor into the Rampage only lasting one season. On March 13, 1993, the Rampage were trailing the Richmond Renegades 6-2 with 6:03 left in the 2nd period. Officials decided to call the game due to structural damage within the LancerLot Arena. A beam supporting the arena started to buckle due to the 16 inches of snow on the roof and 40 mph winds outside. All 63 fans (believed to also be an ECHL record for lowest paid attendance) were told to leave the arena, along with officials, players, coaches, and arena employees.
The Rampage would finish their season without equipment, all of it still buried in the rubble of the Lancerlot Arena and with a roster of 11 players: nine skaters and two goalies. They would make the trip to the Norfolk Scope and play their final game as the Rampage on March 16, 1993, a game that would be delayed twice due to weather and the Rampage being unwilling to abandon their equipment. The Rampage would end up borrowing jerseys (red and black with no logo, formerly owned by the Winston-Salem Thunderbirds) from a local recreation league team.The Rampage would also use two players, Ed Dearborn and Dave Silver, from a local Virginia Beach recreation league to fill out their roster. Dearborn was an employee at the nearby Iceland Skating Rink in Virginia Beach, and Silver was a car salesman. They would lose to the Hampton Roads Admirals 9-4. At the completion of the game, the Admirals fans would give the Rampage a standing ovation
After the collapse of the LancerLot Arena, owner Larry Revo considered both selling and relocating the team. Initially, Revo has discussions of selling the team to Baltimore Skipjacks owner Tom Ebright. Revo also considered the option of relocating to Huntsville.
Revo would later move the team to Huntsville, but would sell the team to Huntsville Hockey Inc., a local ownership group, less than a month into the 1993-94 ECHL season.
