Arena Football

So, I've been getting my football fix lately by watching the AFL. The league is growing on me. My son is turning 9 in 2 weeks and we have decided to take him to a Chicago Rush game. He is a huge football fan. We will be making the 4 hour road trip on March 22nd and we are very excited. I have only been to one game and that was when Indianapolis had the firebirds.
Anyway, I was thinking of getting some AFL cards. Does anyone know of any AFL only card sets? I typed in a few of the big names in the AFL and came up with a few hits but they are recent cards. I think from 06?
Are there any other AFL fans/collectors?
Is there an AFL HOF? I just want to start a thread for BOTR...

THe official AFL HOF thread%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Lol.........

    We've followed the Arena League for years. It helps that the Tampa Storm has won 5 titles. We've even been lucky enough to get footballs twice that went into the stands. Arena football is a good affordable outing for sure.

    The Storm and the Predators have had a great war for years. There's nothing like the War on I-4!
