Alright, you beat me to it. I just found out that there are problems with the field equipment the team just purchased and they can't get it fixed in time to hold the game sunday. They will be rescheduling it for Wednesday Evening.
Hang in there fans. New team, New Ownership....we're going to have some growing pains. Give them this one chance to fix it right for us.

Also, I was just told that any ticket you have already purchased for Sunday's game will be good at any upcoming home game. More details should follow.

That stinks.
So, is it basically - What we bought hasn't arrived yet, specifically the field turf?

My understanding is that there is a problem with the turf and the field dimensions. I wasn't told that it hadn't arrived, just that there is a problem with it.

According to The State article, the turf hasn't arrived yet.
Supposedly Pewonski still 'owns' the team but doesn't do any daily operations with the Stingers anymore, according to his wife...
Though, Wendi says that Pewonski is not associated with the team at all anymore from the article...

Why didnt the team borrow the turf from florence again? Like the past two home games... Seems like the new management is trying to buy some time at the expense of the fans and the ft. myers team. It isnt like those guys dont have jobs that they have to miss on short, short notice.

With all the other arena/indoor teams around it would not have been difficult to make the Sunday game possible. What happens if the equipment/turf isnt ready weds.?

I'm being naively optimistic here.  I'm hoping this is the last hitch in their giddyup and we can start expecting even BETTER things out of this team. |
