Billings Outlaws Go Dormant While Exploring New Location
The Billings Outlaws, a member of Arena Football One, will go dormant for the 2026 season as the club explores relocation options. Ownership cited financial challenges—rising costs, low attendance, declining sponsorship, and limited government support—as key factors behind the decision to exit the Billings market. The team, which captured the ArenaBowl XXXIII title in July 2024, has paused operations while seeking a viable future home and ownership structure. The organization emphasized the move is a strategic pause rather than cessation, with potential for revived operations pending new opportunities.
