The Curse of Joe Robbie explores the demise of one of the most iconic franchises in professional football.
The story begins with visionary businessman Joe Robbie, the founder of the Miami Dolphins, who revolutionized stadium deals in the mid-1980s. After turning the Dolphins into a legendary dynasty, Robbie set out to construct the first privately-funded, state-of-the-art venue in professional sports.
As construction began on his brainchild, Joe Robbie Stadium, a state-mandated excavation revealed that the land was once an Indian burial site belonging to the Seminole tribe.
