From the Titans website:
First Round Playoff Game will be Friday June 8th at the Leon County Civic Center at 7pm. Advanced tickets are on sale at the Titans office. The General public sale through ticket master starts Friday May 25th.
This sounded strange to me at first. The Titans, who are tied with the Mississippi Mudcats for 2nd in the South but trail in the tie-breaker, will be hosting a 1st-Round Playoff game. This is because, reportedly, the Mudcats requested to play their Playoff game (a home game) in a different arena due to some problems with their home arena. The league responded by saying that if the Mudcats were unable to host the Playoffs in their own arena, then they would forfeit the rights to host the Playoff game. And so the Tallahassee Titans and the Lakeland Thunderbolts, both Florida-based teams, will be hosting the 1st Round Playoff Games for the AIFA's South Division.
This ruling by the AIFA will be a HUGE help to the Titans organization. The money (and publicity) that the Titans bring in with a 1st Round HOME Playoff Game will help even more in keeping the Titans organization in Tallahassee for years to come. GO TITANS!
