The Atlantic City Blackjacks were a professional arena football team based in Atlantic City, New Jersey, that played in the Arena Football League (AFL) in 2019.
Home games were played at Boardwalk Hall.[1] [2] The team was operated by Trifecta Sports and Entertainment, the same ownership group as the Albany Empire and Philadelphia Soul.[3] On January 31, the team announced two-time AFL coach of the year Ron James as its inaugural head coach.[4] After a name-the-team contest, the name Blackjacks was announced on March 7.[5] After the Blackjacks' first season, the entire league ceased operations.
A revival of the league set to begin play in 2024 had discussions with Atlantic City about reviving the Blackjacks but found the city's terms to be unacceptable.[6]
