Rupp Arena Has Horsepower

July13

This past Saturday the Horsemen met helmets with the Tennessee Valley Vipers in their third to last game of the season. This game was very pivotal for both teams. If the Vipers won then they would tie for first place in the conference. If the Horsemen won then they would secure a playoff berth, and put themselves in the running to be able to steal first place in the conference as well. With some awesome scoring in the second and third quarter and some amazing defense, the Horsemen pulled out a win last Saturday. That put them on a four game winning streak with two more games left in the season. If they win their two last games they have a chance of tying for first place in the conference. Congrats Horsemen! Show your support this Saturday at their last home game.

Rupp Arena Blog Interview: The Fillies

July10

As I mentioned earlier, we had an interview with the Fillies this week. For those unaware [where have you been?], the Fillies are the cheerleaders for the Kentucky Horsemen, the arena football team that plays here at Rupp Arena. We thought since there are only two home games left (July 11th & July 18th), we would get the word out in case people wanted to catch a game, and also give you some insight into what it is to be a Fillie. Check out the interview below (click here to watch in high definition), the first of many interviews we plan to do from now on.



More Than a Rodeo, It’s Bullnanza!

May30

It’s more than a rodeo – it’s PBR BULLNANZA. And it’s CRAZY!! Seriously, crazy. These guys risk life and limb each time they enter the arena … and they love it! I’ve been to rodeos before, and admittedly, the bull riding competition is my favorite. And not just because these cowboys are donned in boots, chaps and cowboy hats, although that is reason enough. But it’s fast-paced, it’s exciting, and whether they actually manage to stay on for eight seconds so they can be scored, or not, we cheer for their effort, their technique, and their swagger.
