Flag football league celebrates St. Patrick's day at Zocalo

NFFLA and all you can drink margaritas

The National Flag Football League of Atlanta (NFFLA) will host a “Margarita Bust” tonight at Zocalo from 5 – 10 p.m. to celebrate the start of its 2012 Spring season.

The chairman of the NFFLA, Lance Burage, says that this Spring’s league is the largest the NFFLA has ever fielded.

“We set a record number of teams, nine, in the league this year,” Burage says. “It’s the largest the league has ever been.”

Some 120 players have signed on for the upcoming season. With 36 of the players being new to the league, Burage says. Each year, a draft determines the players for each team. Burage says this helps keep the league competitive.
