The Romeros went to Tucson this past Saturday to see my Oregon Ducks play the Arizona Wildcats.
My team won 56-31. We sat up high in an Oregon section and had a blast watching the Ducks score seven touchdowns. I say seven because we missed the eighth, leaving early in the fourth quarter because it was late and it was a long drive back to Phoenix.
Certainly we weren’t leaving if it was a close game, but this was blowout city from the start.
That was one reason to like Tucson. Reason 2: Last time I saw the Ducks in Tucson, they won then, too.
I really have to give Stephanie a lot of credit. She went with me all the way to a place she clearly does not care for, as an Arizona State fan, and she was a good sport supporting me supporting my college. She even wore an Oregon shirt.
Reason 3: Love eating at Mi Nidito Mexican Restaurant.
Reason 4: The murals of Cesar Chavez and farmworkers on the freeway overpass bridge at the 4th Ave. exit off the 10 freeway.
