U.S. Senate candidate Becky Edwards (R-UT) is teaming up with former college football coach Ron McBride to honor 10 military veterans, first responders and their guests at a private event on September 11th in Provo, UT ahead of Utah’s premier college football rivalry game.
The event marks the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and is intended to honor those veterans and workers who serve their local communities despite high risks and cultural and political differences. The rivalry game between the two universities will serve to highlight the need to come together despite strong differences and competitive rivalry.
Wednesday on KOAL's Drive Time Sports coach McBride and John Edwards, son of legendary BYU coach Lavelle Edwards, joined the show to talk about the rivalry and the unique event.
The Edwards campaign is asking Utahns from across the state to nominate those veterans, first responders, and front-line healthcare workers that inspire them, who have served selflessly both at home and abroad. Those who nominate their heroes are encouraged to invite friends and family to vote for those stories they find most inspiring. Submissions and voting will be open until Thursday, September 9th at 11:59 pm.
Winning nominees will receive special college football memorabilia, tickets to the rivalry game, and an invitation to a pre-game event at the home of Patti and LaVell Edwards in Provo. Guests at the pre-game event will mingle with Becky, her husband John, and Coach McBride and his wife, Vicky. Winners will be treated to an insiders’ view into the lives of two legendary football coaches and be able to participate in Edwards’ and McBride’s gameday traditions, including Patti Edward’s famous gameday stew.
