Like any team, the United Football League’s Las Vegas Locomotives want to keep their fans entertained.
This season, the Locos are hoping that the fans who come to their home games at Sam Boyd Stadium will enjoy a new kind of experience.
The "UFL Experience," to be exact.
The "UFL Experience" will be a part of the Locos’ Fan Fest, interactive pregame entertainment that includes music and exhibitions outside of their stadium. There will be face painting and balloon artists for young fans, and local musicians such as Yellow Brick Road will perform.
The rock group Sugar Ray will also be the halftime show entertainment during the Locos’ home opener against the Florida Tuskers on Sept. 18. Sugar Ray is best known for their 1990s hits "When It’s Over" and "Every Morning." They released a new album, "Music for Cougars," last year.
The Locos were UFL champions in 2009, the inaugural season of the UFL. Former NFL players Tim Rattay and Marcel Shipp (a former UMass Minuteman) currently play for the Locos.
