Iowa Barnstormers vs. Jacksonville Sharks

The Arena Football League awarded Des Moines its first arena football
franchise in 1995, which originally played in Veterans Memorial
Auditorium. The Barnstormers made the playoffs in their first season and
have advanced to two Arenabowl Championship games, first in 1996 and
again in 1997, falling both times.

The team was sold in 2000 and
the following season became an affiliate of the af2. The next year they
ceased operations. After a 7 year void, the Barnstormers returned to
Wells Fargo Arena as an af2 team before joining the top-tier league once
again in 2010. Throughout history the team has consistently had one of
the best attendance averages in the league. This year the Barnstormers
introduced Mike Hohensee as their head coach. The season runs from March
to July.
