I just went to my first Barnstormer game since 1997 (when I was 11 years old) and I just have to say what a great football experience, especially because of all the former Panthers! If you live in the DSM area and haven't been to a stormer game, you have got to go check it out! Terrence Freeney scored the games first touchdown (he plays both sides of the ball). Tanner Varner plays safety, Mike Matthes plays OL/DL, Danny Triplett is playing LB but he's hurt, and Charles Johnson (an NU high alum) is playing OL/DL.
Varner had a huge knock down on a 2pt. conversion attempt by the Quad City Steamwheelers and the announcer says "oh and by the way fans, he played for the university of northern iowa!!" And everyone cheered. They love the Iowa boys on the Barnstormers! It was a great time, I encourage anyone in central Iowa, or anyone who wants to see some Panthers playing arena ball!
