New AIFA Conjures Images of AFL’s Past

[Tatonka]

As a buddy of mine and I walked into the Donald L. Tucker Civic Center in Tallahassee on Saturday night for the inaugural home game of the American Indoor Football Association’s Tallahassee Titans, the first thing he pointed out jokingly was that the only sponsor patch on the field was that of an apartment we used to live in. I, on the other hand, noticed that the end zones were black, a color nowhere to be found on the Titans blue and gold jerseys. As we got to our seats I took a closer look at the field. It looked quite familiar to me. Fifty yards, black rounded end zones, and something that sort of looked like a worn off AFL logo at midfield. There were other worn off logos on the turf that weren’t readable, but one in the end zone struck me in an instant: “World Champions.” Then I made out the claw and finally saw the entire Orlando Predators logo hiding beneath the word “Titans” in big, white, block letters.
