The Chicago Rush are a storied part of arena football history. Operating in the Arena Football League from 2001 to 2013, the team clinched the ArenaBowl XX championship in 2006, cementing their place as one of Chicago’s memorable sports franchises. While the official AFL chapter paused operations after 2013, the Rush left a lasting legacy in the region, with home games mostly held at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL, and a notable two 2013 matches at the BMO Harris Bank Center in Rockford, IL. Today, any ongoing activity tied to Chicago Rush tends to be fan-driven or unofficial, reflecting the enduring affection local fans still hold for these AFL memories.
