The unique opportunity to catch a football at an Arena Football game is very high. In an average game, no less than 20 footballs will find their way into the stands. Given the fact that around 90 plays are run each game, that means a fan comes away with a football once every 4.5 plays.
The New Orleans VooDoo snap an eight game losing streak to pick up a 69-40 win over the Cleveland Gladiators Saturday night in front of a crowd of 4,148 in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
A wild bounce on the opening kickoff turned the tables against the Cleveland Gladiators (2-8) for the rest of the night, as they fell short in New Orleans by a 69-40 score against the VooDoo (2-8). Dominick Goodman led the way for the Gladiators with 12 catches and a pair of touchdowns. Chris Dieker returned to the Gladiators lineup after missing last week's game with an injury, completing 27 passes, including four for touchdowns.
