 "The community really pulls together to care for one another and deal with issues."
 "I'm a huge U of A sports fan, and feel it's the strongest civic bond Tucson has, of any kind. Where else to you see such a blend of ages, ethnicities, religions, political persuasions, socioeconomic statuses, etc. in one venue? . . ."
 "I've met so many interesting people and made great friends whom I've learned so much from."
