Sioux Falls Storm News Release


The Sioux Falls Storm is pleased to announce that this Saturday's game vs. the Omaha Beef at the Sioux Falls Arena was SOLD OUT earlier today. With a win, the Storm will set new record for most consecutive victories in professional football history. Last Saturday's 56-31 victory over the Sioux City Bandits marked the 27th consecutive victory for the Storm, which ties the record for consecutive victories.

Storm Director of Ticketing, Bekah Gale, would like to remind fans that the only way to guarantee seats to every game including playoffs is to purchase season tickets. "Season tickets are a great way to get seats to every game at a discounted price. You also get the first opportunity to purchase playoff tickets which will go fast." Season tickets are available by calling the Storm office at 332-4225.

This week's edition of the Kurtiss Riggs Show will be broadcast LIVE from Gateway Lounge in Sioux Falls. Gateway Lounge is located just off of 41st St. behind Carmike Theatre.
