The Tucson Roller Derby league is amazing. I went to the double header on November 19th, and even…read morethough they had a last minute venue change from the Bookman's Event Center to the Pima County Fairgrounds, the bout was still well attended by the loyal TRD fans. That night featured bouts between the TRD Cooper Queens vs. Dirty Verde and TRD's Furious Truckstop Waitresses vs. The Surly Gurlies. The first bout was a blow out but the second bout was fierce and the jammer for the Surly Gurlies was ejected, which is uncommon. I will be supporting the TRD from now on. They did have beer, coffee, and cocoa for sale. But the one downside was they only served Bud or Bud Light. I hope when I see them play at Bookman's there might be more choices.

Truly a Tucson classic. This is a great place to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon during the…read moremonths of February and March. They usually do about 8 races, every 30 minutes, and there's plenty to do between race time. They generally will have a pretty large selection of food trucks available or you can eat from their in-house restaurant underneath the grandstand. This past weekend, they also had a live mariachi band and you can also wander over to the stables to see the horses. And, apart from the casinos, this is one of the few places where you can actually do some real betting. Check it out at least once, you'll enjoy it. Pro tip: Make sure you pick up a program to get into on the odds without having to stand around and read the boards.

You win some, you lose some but with $2 bets, who cares?!…read more It's a shame the horse races only go for a very short season but what fun! My friends and I have made this an annual tradition (lol, 2 years. I can call that a tradition, right?) and it's a great day in the sun screaming and yelling for horses we know nothing about. Pick 'em however you want: jockey/horse bright colors, horse name, pretty horse, cute jockey or god forbid stats, then go place your bet, grab a beer and stand trackside for your race. $5 general admission, $4 beer, margaritas, hotdogs/nachos/etc and you're set. You could pay a few bucks more to sit in the upstairs, indoors section but then you'd miss all the fun. You'll see all kinds of people from old white guys chewing a toothpick and studying the program and cheatsheets to families out for the day to girls dressed to impress in heels and sundresses. Do yourself a favor and ignore those along the interior road charging $5 for covered parking in the adjacent business park and just park in the track's dirt lot for free. Come to Rillito, have fun, have a beverage in the sun and get excited about your $6.20 quinella box winnings!!

It's a wonderful neighborhood that puts up spectacular lights, everyone has a different theme and it is always so nice to get into the holiday spirit!

I am beyond impressed with Deborah Smith at Stop & Go Driving School! My son, Gage, just finished…read morehis lessons with her and successfully passed his road test, and Deborah was instrumental in his success. From day one, she was professional, patient, and very thorough. Deborah provided written evaluations after each lesson, which made it easy to track Gage's progress and gave him clear goals to focus on. Her supportive and encouraging teaching style helped him feel calm, capable, and prepared for the test. Stop & Go is lucky to have someone like Deborah - she sets the bar incredibly high. Parents, if you're looking for a driving instructor who goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend her.

The daughter is now driving. I couldn't teach her as no matter how hard I pressed my foot down,…read morethere was never a break pedal on the passenger side to slow the car down. So then my flinching, grasping the dashboard, and moving my leg erracticly seemed to make my child nervous. The nerves of steel drivers at Stop and Go not only couldn't on the streets with her but took her on the freeway! They would drive around for two hours at a time, covering all the problem areas she had and getting her practice in. Then after the session they would give me a run down of how it went, what she did well and what she needed to work on. You can have a lesson as early as 6am and late into night. They pick up and drop off, so if strategic you can also get out of some chauffeuring. The last and best possibly draw of stop and go is that the final session of a five session package is their driving test. If pass you get a certificate and can go to dmv with that and avoid the test there. Huge time saver and way less stress for the kid.

I attended the first Tucson Asian Night Market, which was held at the Tucson Chinese Cultural…read moreCenter. The event was similar to Tucson Meet Yourself but on a smaller scale and limited to Asian and Pacific Island cultures. There were many booths and trucks where you could get food and drinks. There was also a stage with live amateur entertainment representing a wide variety of traditional and contemporary Asian and Pacific cultures. The event was a hit, so well attended that that was also the biggest downside. Traffic getting there was a nightmare. There were long lines at almost every food and drink stand. But aside from the crowds, it was a fun way to spend a Saturday evening.
