Tempe Conventions & Visitors Bureau

There are so many events in Tempe this weekend. Actually, I’m amazed that they fit into just one weekend. Every Sun Devil fan will want to attend the Homecoming game against Cal on Saturday night. Now that we’re ranked #4 IN THE COUNTRY, it’s going to be an even more exciting game. For the athletic types, the Soma 1/2 Ironman Triathlon is happening this Sunday at Tempe Town Lake. Families will want to see “A Thousand Cranes” by Childsplay at the gorgeous, new Tempe Center for the Arts. And, if you’re looking for even more culture, don’t miss the Dia de Los Muertos Festival at Desert Botanical Garden. Have fun out there!

7 and 0. Let me say that again: 7 and 0. I can’t remember a time when there was such a frenzy about the Sun Devils football team. Perhaps it was the 1996 season that led us to the Rose Bowl. Maybe this year’s excitement even surpasses that. I think it does. According to the NCAA Football Rankings this week, we’re ranked #8 in the nation. In my heart, of course, we’re number one. I can’t wait to see us crush Cal on the 27th. Wildcats, consider yourself warned. We’re coming after you too. Go Devils!

My friends and I had lunch at Dragonfly last week.  It was GREAT!  The food was delicious and well prepared.  Our server was super knowledgeable and explained everything to us in great detail.  I am so excited that there is a new lunch option on Mill Ave! 

 My friend Jay got this crazy Vietnamese coffee that brews in a little coffee cup right on the table!  Check it out!
