The Columbus IPAs? Here’s what YOU think Arena Football team should be named

Yesterday, we told you about the return of Arena Football to Columbus.

We also ran a poll to see what you guys think the team should be named. Of the five options we gave you—The Columbus Brambleberry Crisps, The Columbus Buckeye B-sides, The Columbus Capitals, The Columbus Arnold Terminators, The Columbus Construction Barrels—The Columbus Capitals won with 34.8% of the vote.

However, we also let your creativity shine with a write-in option that garnered 162 responses.

Of these, The Columbus Destroyers was by far the fan favorite. Could it be that it’s because the Columbus Arena Football League from 2004-08 was called the Columbus Destroyers?

We think yes. Well…that, and the Destroyers is just a cool name.

But, there were definitely some write-ins worth mentioning.

Below are all write-in responses.
