The IPFL led a troubled three-year existence, and died after its 2001 season, with its most successful teams joining up with the National Indoor Football League.

In 1999, IPFL was headed by a new commissioner, Mike Storen, and the league offices were moved to Atlanta.

The Utah Catzz soon folded as well, leading to the demise of the Pro Indoor Football League.

[citation needed] During the off season, the Indoor Professional Football League saw major changes with the loss of three of its charter franchises: Rocky Mountain, Hawaii and Texas.

The Bayou Beast's relocation to Alexandria left the league with no club still remaining in its city that it started operations in.
