The 2007 Arena Football League season was the 21st season of the Arena Football League. The regular season began play on March 1, 2007 and concluded on June 25. The league broke its regular-season total attendance record, with 1,887,054 people in attendance this season.ArenaFan Online : AFL Press Releases
Following a year-long hiatus last year in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, the New Orleans VooDoo franchise resumed play this season to return the league to a 19-team format. New Orleans also hosted ArenaBowl XXI. This was the last of three non-consecutive AFL seasons in which the league fielded 19 teams, the most in AFL history.
The league champions were the San Jose SaberCats, who defeated the Columbus Destroyers in ArenaBowl XXI.
