I just read the fine print on the video and see that is was a banned Student Government production.

I’m hoping to get to the game, if I arrange my work day around it. Since it’s at ASU, there should be room for anyone who wants to attend.

My brother attended Saguaro. My son attends Chaparral. We have our own in-house rivalry going on.

But, you know what those Saguaro Sabercats say about the Chaparral Firebirds. “Cats eat birds.”

I hope it’s a great game, and yes, congratulations to both teams.

Just one small correction… as of this year, McDowell Mountain Ranch students now go to Desert Mountain High School rather than Saguaro. This change was made to allow for a consistent feeder pattern for McDowell Mountain Ranch students, but they are free to apply for open enrollment to any SUSD high school. Just thought you might like to know.

That video is hilarious!

Both my sons graduated from Saguaro. I’ve been to a ton of Saguaro games. I even worked the concession stand for the band boosters one year.

I haven’t been to but one game this year. Since my younger son graduated last spring, I wonder if I can still go to games?

Hey John,

Found this video uploaded earlier this year when I was looking to verify the start time of this Saturday’s game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI87fQOLduY

Just a little bit of rivalry.

Who are you rooting for?
