Per Joe:

The Arena Football League is back and will be in Minnesota in 2024.

In what capacity hasn't been confirmed, but TMZ is reporting Minnesota will have a team in St. Paul that will be one of 16 teams included in the rebirth of the league.

The league itself announced Tuesday 16 locations that will have something to do with the 2024 season.

  • Minnesota
  • Boise, Idaho
  • Austin, Texas
  • Chicago, Illinois
  • Orlando, Florida
  • Tallahassee, Florida
  • Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
  • St. Louis, Missouri
  • California
  • Louisiana
  • Colorado
  • Ohio
  • Oregon
  • Tennessee
  • Washington
  • West Texas

Go Gophers!!
 

Do we add them to the championship drought thread? Maybe they can put an end to it.............

Ugghhh.... I don't care enough to dig into how different this is from the IFL (?), Indoor Football League, but I saw the first game the Vegas Knight Hawks played a year or two ago and left after halftime. Just brutal. I'm sure this is a LITTLE bit better, but it can't be great.

Just wait until you see me running fly routes and you'll be begging for season tickets. Everyone loves trainwrecks.
 


I was living in Iowa when the Iowa Barnstormers were playing in the Arena Football League - with Kurt Warner at QB. I watched a couple of games on TV. they were fairly entertaining, and then a lot of their best players left with some moving up to the NFL.

if the ticket prices are low enough, a new team in MN might draw a few fans - but honestly, I wonder if they can generate enough revenue to be successful.
 



Add them to the "Championshin Drought" thread. They don't even have a team and yet they probably have the best shot at breaking the curse.
