Locos Express News 10/19

As always, if you've missed any past episodes of Locos Extra on Sundays, you can catch up on the episodes here via KTNV channel 13.

The game on Saturday is themed "Kid's Rule," so all kids 12 and under are free. All UNLV students with valid student ID are free too! There will be a fan fest that starts at 10AM with bounce houses, face painters, BMX riders, skateboarders, and more.

The 2010 UFL Championship game site has been announced. It comes as no surprise that Omaha will be hosting the game. They've been selling out, and their fans are very enthusiastic. Hopefully Vegas can catch up!

Safety Lewis Baker and kicker Steven Hauschka won UFL defensive/special teams players of the week due to their contributions to last weeks game. Daunte Culpepper should've won offensive player of the week, for throwing it to us so many times. Barker had two tackles, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and an interception against Sacramento, while Hauschka hit four field goals ranging from 36-47 yards during the game.

Locos Mini-Camp Recap

It's been a little while since Locos Station has been updated, and I apologize for that. Anyway, last weekend was the Locos mini-camp, and according to coach Fassel, it was a success. A few fans showed up to the fan fest, and some season tickets were sold. The picture above is from the Las Vegas Sun slideshow you can find here. There's some good pictures there that show the cool practice uniforms. Here is a good article from the Las Vegas Review Journal about mini-camp.

Las Vegas Locos Mini-Camp Roster

Check out the team roster that will be participating in Mini-Camp this weekend. A lot of great players returning, and new players showing their skills. Chicago Rush players QB Russ Michna and WR Samie Parker will miss the Rush game to attend mini-camp. Looks like the players are taking the team very seriously. That's great, let's bring another championship back to Vegas where it belongs!

You can find the roster on the official UFL site here.

Locos Mini-Camp Featuring A Fan Fest

Mini-Camp is fast approaching for the Locos. Here's the schedule:

Friday June 18th 2:15 - 4:30pm
Saturday June 19th 8:00am - 2:15pm
Sunday June 20th 8:00 - 10:15am

All fans are invited to view the practices from the stands.

Most fans will probably want to attend the Saturday Select-a-seat Fan Fest that will be going on from 8:00 - 11:30am. Fans will be able to watch the team practice for a couple hours, and then get to meet and greet the players and coaches. There will also be football activities on our home field! Come meet players new and old on Saturday. Come say hi to Locos Station's very own Joseph. I'll be wearing a Locos shirt and LV cap. Everyone can watch the practice from any seat at Sam Boyd Stadium, and fans are invited to purchase season tickets from whichever seats they'd like.
