"Must see! If you like Canton, OH this would be fun to check out. It may not be the hall of fame NFL but it's a little miniature version of AZ Fiesta Bowl info that will take you back to the days of Phx Fiesta Bowl highlights that may make you recall some good times....see for yourself, pics below. Recommend taking a minute to check out if you love College Football and Arizona the way I do......Go Devils!"

"I had an absolute blast coming to this great little museum. Brought back a lot of great memories as I went to boise state during the time we beat University of Oklahoma with the statue of liberty play with Jared Zabranski at quarterback. I remember it well because I actually bet against us. Lol. This whole area of town was great, if you're around definitely so in and check it out!"

"Amazing curated collection of Fiesta Bowl and college football history. It's so much more than just football, but the connection to the state of Arizona and our communities. Best of all, admission is free!"
