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.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
We’re just saying.
