Milwaukee Mustangs News Release
MILWAUKEE - The Milwaukee Iron Arena Football, Inc. ("Milwaukee Iron") (OTCBB: GCNV), who is a member of the Arena Football League, announced today that they will guarantee a 2010 playoff appearance. If the Milwaukee Iron fail to make the playoffs, the 2010 season ticket packages will be on the Iron.
During an on-air interview with Kramp and Adler on FM 102.1 WLUM this morning, Milwaukee Iron general manager Jason Clark explained the details of their guarantee for the Iron's first playoff appearance. If the Iron are unable to reach the playoffs, each season ticket holder will get the 2010 season for free, with the money used to purchase 2011 season tickets.
"The Arena Football League is back in a big way here in Milwaukee. Our fans have been waiting for the return of the AFL to the Bradley Center for nine years now. Wisconsin's arena football fans have always been tremendous, ever since they packed the house for Milwaukee Mustangs' games," said Clark. "Since the Arena Football League is truly all about the fan experience we've decided that we're going to guarantee Iron fans that we make the playoffs in our first year as a member of the AFL, and we're going to back it up. Purchase any 2010 Milwaukee Iron season ticket package and if we don't make the playoffs this summer, this season's on us.
"Training camp began yesterday and our players and coaches are excited for this challenge, and so am I. We're hungry to deliver a great fan experience as we work to bring an ArenaBowl Trophy to Milwaukee and we want everyone to enjoy this championship drive with us."
All Iron 2010 season ticket holders will hold the guarantee whether they have already purchased tickets or whether they have yet to purchase season tickets. The Iron begin their 2010 season with a road game at Spokane against the 2009 ArenaCup Champion Shock. The Iron's first home game will be on Friday, April 16 at the Bradley Center against the Iowa Barnstormers at 7 pm. The Iron will also host one game that will be aired nationally on the NFL Network against the Utah Blaze on Friday, May 14 at 7 pm.
