Purple Gang

The Purple Gang was an attempted Klein Cup reincarnation of the famed, but ultimately doomed and cursed, Big Purple Machine which showed immense promise in the Hellmouth Cup postseason, only to bomb out and choke in the most critical moments.

The Purple Gang was forged in the camraderie of the Detroit Grape Chews disposal of their bitter rivals, the Milwaukee Flamingos , with a pickup truck out to a "Grape Processing Facility" in Little Jerusalem.

However, they began to experience highly volatile performance as the Purple Gang, consistently reaching the Championship Series round, only to be denied in the most painful ways, like being repeatedly killed and resurrected:

• Klein/Season 13: The Boylston Boogers defeated the Purple Gang Detroit Grape Chews 4-3.
• Klein/Season 15: The San Francisco Boat Shoes defeated the Purple Gang Detroit Grape Chews 4-3.
• Klein/Season 16: The Delaware Corporate Shells swept the Purple Gang Detroit Grape Chews .
• Klein/Season 18: The Fargo Flea Flickers defeated the Purple Gang Detroit Grape Chews 4-2.
• Klein/Season 20: The Sugar Grove Eavesdroppers defeated the Purple Gang Detroit Grape Chews 4-2.
• Klein/Season 24: The Boylston Boogers defeated the Purple Gang Detroit Grape Chews 4-1.
