Nice, I like watching the Rush because I never know any players on the team but they represent Chicago. In a way it makes the game more fun to watch if that makes sense.

All the Rush I remember from that championship team are gone now. Matt D'Orazio (Soul) and Bobby Sippio (Chiefs)

Oh man, few things I notice:
Damien Harrell drinks Mountain Dew during games.
Best headgear ever: A guy wearing a pizza(kind of like the cheese heads)

This is a rare time a Chicago sports team gets in one of these commericals! Only other one I could think of is Ozzie's bullpen call.

Watch for coach Mike Hohensee and seven members of the Rush on a "This Is SportsCenter" commercial scheduled to air on ESPN later this month.
Hohensee and players James Alexander, DeJuan Alfonzo, James Baron, Sherdrick Bonner, Damian Harrell, John Moyer and Jeremy Unertl flew to Bristol, Conn., last week and shot two spots with ESPN anchor John Anderson.
The Rush, perennial Arena Football League contenders, are the first Arena team to be used in the series of spots, which debuted in 1994.

I bet it will have something to do with people who do not know what Arena Football is.

I had season tickets to the Rush one year, row 1 behind the players bench.
Highlight: High fiving all the players and our group got 2 footballs.
Lowlight: You can't see crap sitting behind the players because they stand all game.

I've been to a few Rush games over the past few years and I would say the prices are pretty decent. The games are worth the money because they are pretty entertaining. They are a much better deal, then say for example, the Chicago Sky, who
should have low ticket prices to bring in more young fans.

I think it was like $350 for 2 tickets for the whole season.

Wow, they raised ticket prices a lot since I had seats there. When I bought mine the most expensive seats in the house were like $30.
