2014
The franchise was first announced in May 2013. It announced that the Warhorses would be playing at the Alltech Arena on the grounds of the Kentucky Horse Park. In July, it was announced the Warhorses would be a member of the Continental Indoor Football League. Harry Lewis was introduced in August as the team's first head coach. With former University of Kentucky quarterback, Shane Boyd leading the Warhorses, they fell to the Northern Kentucky River Monsters 20-36, in what became an internet sensation game, due to Jared Lorenzen's 320-pound quarterback play. The team fell into financial problems halfway through the season, cancellation of their four remaining home dates, and moving the league to seek new ownership for a possible 2015 season.
