Day 189 (July 9, 2010): Arena Football

Today we watched “Arena Football” on tv. They telecast games every Friday night but we have never been at home to watch one so we made sure that we were tonight. Since the game is played in a hockey rink setting it is quite different than football played on a regular sized field. They have some different rules and strategies. It was interesting to watch but a bit confusing at times. It is a bit of a faster game because the field is so much smaller. It doesn’t take as long for them to get a touchdown. The scores can get quite high. We both thought that it would be more fun to be at a live game than it was to watch it on tv.
