How did this happen, exactly?
The Wildcat Kickoff Party, a UofA football confab featuring a pump-you-up speech by head coach Mike Stoops, isn’t taking place at some Tucson piece of you-know-what like Danny’s Baboquivari or the Wildcat House, but in the ASU Sun Devils’ backyard at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa.
Ugh, multiplied by 5,000.
Now, we’d like to suggest all sorts of party-crashing follies, but since that would be illegal – plus, there’s no way you’ll see us wearing red-and-blue attire, which is required for entrance – we’ll instead suggest this: Imitate Tucson’s annoying-ness by standing outside the joint and taunting the ’cat fans with a rousing “Wait ’til basketball season.” Because, you know, ASU has schooled the pussycats on the hardwood five consecutive times.
Phoenix, make your New Year’s Resolution Count!
We’re $14,000 away from our End-of-Year campaign goal, with just a five days left! We’re ready to deliver — but we need the resources to do it right. If New Times matters to you, please contribute today to help us expand our current events coverage when it’s needed most.
We’re just saying.
