The deal includes advertising for the team on WRVC and sister Rock WRVC-F (92.7 THE PLANET) and Country WDGG (93.7 THE DAWG).
What is the American Indoor Football Association?

I assume this is a time buy?

the American Indoor Football Association is just another arena football league, the sport has been gaining popularity nationally in the last couple years causing more teams to pop up by the year, Jon Bon Jovi owns the Las Vegas team.. there are more celebs who are team owners too...

I wonder if they will try to build a small network of stations in the hopes of gaining a following in out of metro Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia. Some of these private minor leagues try to do that, with various degrees of success.

I thought Bon Jovi owned the Philadelphia Soul in the AFL? John Elway owns the Denver team in the AFL.

Ah, yes. This is the league that once had in it the Steubenville Stampede indoor football team, now defunct.

We also note that Wheeling's indoor football team has folded. It was in a different league, however.

Here's info on the AIFA:

The Arena Football League's patent expired in September, which will allow copycat leagues to use various elements (e.g. the rebound net) that previous were protected by the patent.
