WBS Pioneers Pony Express at the American Conference Championship Game

AFL (The Arena Football League) was played in big cities (New York, Chicago, LA) and had big owners (Bon Jovi, John Elway, Jerry Jones). They didn’t play this year and may never play again.

af2 (that’s right it’s lower case) is the minor league of the AFL, and is played in smaller cities like Manchester, NH, Tulsa and Stockton CA.

The af2 is playing this season and the Conference Championships were last Saturday.

This is the last game for the Pony Express, who won’t be traveling to Las Vegas for ArenaCup X this Saturday. So the girls got a little silly near the end.
