The Atlanta Falcons were established in 1966 and are part of the NFC South division. The Falcons were established without a team name, so the franchise held a contest to find a suitable mascot a year before the team played its first game. Schoolteacher Julia Elliott submitted the winning entry, choosing the Falcons because the birds are “proud and dignified.” The Falcons play their NFL schedule home games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, located in Atlanta, Georgia.
