Re: The Media Always Mixes Up ASU and Arizona
That would be a shirt I'd immediately buy on first sight. It'd be of immediate use for me whenever I attend an ASU home game, which I did last year Vs Colorado. Wearing a yellow surfer shirt and a maroon diamondbacks hat, an ASU fan in line with me for beer was astute enough to recognize that though I was wearing the colors I didn't have the logo and must not really be an ASU fan. "Correct" I confirmed.

I don’t wear those colors for any reason.

This isn't exactly the same mix up, but last night's CBS Sports' College Football show was previewing the weekends coming games and made quite a mistake with Arizona Vs USC. Where the TV graphic displayed the city where the game is played, instead of Tucson it stated USC at Arizona from Glendale AZ.

Not the media, but if you're smart enough to be on Jeopardy you should know better.

I was wondering that they were showing last night when they said it was a beautiful night in Tucson. From FB, someone said it was the lake in Tempe.
Re: The Media Always Mixes Up ASU and Arizona
Wondered about that too. Thought maybe it was Havasu.

Machina seems to constantly forget this is an Arizona fan page.
No one here points out that Iowa and Iowa State get mixed up because… let me check my notes…. No one gives a shit about them

This is a fact? Or just a fact ex machina?

The recent mixup reminds me some of the conversations I have here down under...
"Where are you from in America, Bison?" (now living in Queensland, Australia)
"Tucson, Arizona. Born and raised"
"Ohhhh isn't that where it's like 50 celsius year round and there's no green, and you've never seen snow!"
"Yeah I thought the same about Australia, but here we are!"
