owner =Will WolfordThe Louisville Fire is an arena football team that plays its home games at the Brown-Forman Field in Freedom Hall in Louisville, Kentucky. They are a 2001 expansion team of the af2. Their owner/operator is former Pro Bowl lineman and Louisville native Will Wolford. The team has been somewhat successful. After a rocky first few seasons they finally found success in 2004 and then made it all the way to the Arena Cup in the 2005 season.

In July 2007 it was announced that the team plans on selling portions of the team to local ownership (ala the NFL's Green Bay Packers) and attempt to boost season ticket sales and then buy it back in time before the team joins the AFL.
