Those were fun. It wasn't that the Twisters were doing bad, they always had a pretty good crowd in the early years (averaged 13,000 the first year), the league just didn't do too well overall. I think they moved us down to AFL 2 and that kind of took some of the luster off of it and crowd gradually went down too, IIRC.

I doubt that league ever plays a game.




Looks like it's going the way of the AAFL. Announce season then move it 4 years in a row and give up.

Just another example of Little Rock's sense of entitlement.

I was also thinking several years back and there was an LR semi pro team that played outdoors and I believe they played in the Spring. I knew one of the local guys that played on the team. I don't think they lasted a season.

I knew a guy who played on that team as well. It merged into oblivion.

Is this equivalent to the NBA D-league?

No, The D-league is affiliated with NBA teams and league.

The closest the NFL has ever had was NFL Europe.
