The boys are back in town

The Iowa Barnstormers make the way back to Des Moines tonight for their 2008 home opener.

The Barnstormer’s, coming back from a 7-year layoff, take on the Lexington Horsemen at 7:05pm at Wells Fargo arena. This is the Barnstormers third go around in Des Moines, and I think this one has a chance. Eight home dates, new building, fast action, crappy weather. I can see this version attracting a good crowd for all 8 homes dates.

The Barnstormer’s first outing was a bit rough, losing 58-28, after spotting Louisville 37 points. As anyone knows that has been to a arena game, it takes getting your feet wet. I expect a much better performance tonight.

Tailgating starts at 4:00 in the parking lot immediately north of Vets Auditorium.
