Got comped for Sunday's Orlando @ Chicago Arena Football game... I'm stoked. It's not the NFL -- but it's close enough for me!
I'll comment sometime on Sunday after the game.

As a minor league baseball mark (and hockey) I say a live football game is just that - football. It will be a blast- go Orlando! I am jealous... I miss the Pirrahnas... are they even still around?
I saw an Arena Football game (the one and only year there were Memphis Pharoahs) a few years back. Pretty fun... Arena Football really does a good job of catering to the casual fan base as well as the more serious. It's a good mix, and their heads are in the right places.
Sick that I'm going to do this, but I will probably tape the game, just to see what NBC does with the coverage.
The Good:
NBC is actually regionalizing coverage; IIRC, Florida and some of the Midwest (WI, IL, IN) are getting the game... about 10%.
The Bad:
I know it's year one, but the set is ehh.
The Unknown:
Is Dickie going to actually FoxBox the score for once? Sure, the EX-FL did it, but at least Vince had a stake in that. I'm hoping NBC does the right thing and goes ahead with the FoxBox -- especially with the scores that the AFL can get.

I have always wanted to go to one. I go to abotu 2 panthers games a year and they cant be much worse than that. In a related yet off topic thought. I have thought about going to a NBDL game in Fayett-Nam. i think those games may be fun bc those guys are hungry and looking to impress.
If someone gets urinated upon do they get pissed off or pissed on?
