2010 Schedule Announced!

Today the UFL announced the 2010 schedule. The schedule is for 5 teams, and it's a ten week schedule with two byes per team. Each team will have 4 home games. Many fans are going to be confused because the league has talked about having two expansion teams. After the indifference towards the league in San Antonio, the league decided to focus on what they've got and work on further expansion next year. It will still be a great on-field product, and I can't wait to see you all at Sam Boyd for all of the Locos home games!

Fan Fest Experience

Hey everyone, I went to the Locos Fan Fest this past Sunday and would like to share the experience with all of you.

I showed up at about 3:45 PM after leaving early from work and walked into the stadium. At first I sat down on the bleachers just to take a look at everything that was going on. There was an emcee that was from a local radio station I believe who acted as the announcer throughout the event. He talked about how local radio stations will be covering the Locos all year long, and then introduced a dance number by a group of talented dancers who were there to help promote the future Locos dance team and to help girls of all ages at the Fan Fest with cheer techniques.
