Does anyone think that the Buffalo Destroyers return when the 2024 Arena Football League starts again? The new owners of the league want to comeback with potentially 16 teams from former AFL cities. Buffalo is a former Arena Football League city. Buffalo has no MLB, no MLS, no NWSL, no USL, no WNBA , no XFL and no USFL to take fans away from a potential new Arena Football League franchise. Buffalo with just the International League Buffalo Bisons for a Arena Football League franchise to compete for fans with seems like a logical choice. I don’t see how the Arena Football League is going to want to compete with USFL, XFL, MLS and MLB in all there potential city choices?
 

Economically that would be s tough proposition for a restarted Arena Football League. 10 games 5 home and 5 away. If Buffalo Destroyers can’t sell 5 home games at let’s say $20 a game for $100 for a season ticket? Don’t tell me Buffalo is happening and on the up swing. If Buffalo gets passed over by this league too it says a lot what outsiders think of Buffalo economically if Buffalo can’t even receive a restarted Arena Football League that Buffalo Destroyers were in for five years. I had season tickets for all five years of the Buffalo Destroyers. Back then there was a lot more games so 5 games shouldn’t be a problem if this city is the sports city everyone seems to think it is. Plus downtown Buffalo will get football after all if the Buffalo Destroyers comeback home in my opinion. Go Destroyers! Let’s Go Buffalo
