Canton Cougars owner offers free tickets if his team loses to Saginaw Sting
March 15, 2011 Kyle Austin | The Saginaw News
Canton Cougars owner Andrew Haines is offering a free ticket to a future Cougars game to everyone in attendance at Monday's Canton-Saginaw Sting game should the Sting win, according to a press release on the Ultimate Indoor Football League web site.
The offer came with some strong words from Haines, who is also a league co-founder.
"We will beat Saginaw," Haines said. "...I am so confident in this team that I am willing to lose thousands of dollars if we are defeated.”
The Cougars are the only winless team in the UIFL, and have lost all three of their games by an average of nearly 19 points. Most recently, they lost 41-19 to Johnstown Saturday.
The Sting are 2-1 on the year. Their only loss came Sunday, 38-37 to the Huntington Hammer.
The two teams have yet to play this season.
"Minor league pro football is a weird universe filled with bounced checks, unpaid bills, empty promises, out-right lies, empty arenas, endless women, endless booze, occasionally drugs, endless trips on rented buses to towns on the outskirts of the Big Time and, for one night a week, a football game." -- Bill Shea
