The Tri City Rattlers dominated the Inland Northwest Football League in 2004 posting three wins over it's closest competition Walla Walla.  1,500 fans attended the season opener against Palouse.
 
Tragedy struck the Rattlers shortly after the season ended when popular coach Bob Mars was stabbed to death on Sept 4th, 2004 by two teenagers in an attempted robbery at the Kiona-Benton City Middle School.  Later it was discovered the attack was a gang initiation and planned, Coach Mars was just the random victim selected.  The staff decided the "perfect season" would be their last as a tribute to Coach Mars and all agreed to shut down the team.
 
When the INWFL disbanded, so too did the Tri-City Rattlers.  After the Evergreen Football League formed, a new team was established for the area called the Tri City Knights under completely new ownership.
