Whitewash the A

Echo from the Buttes

Painting the 'A' white is one of the longest-standing traditions at ASU, and it's a great way to kickoff the new school year. Join us and a legion of Sun Devil students on a trek to the top of ‘A’ Mountain and help paint the gold ‘A’ white, signifying a fresh new start to a school year. 

Sparky's Touchdown Tailgates

Sparky’s Touchdown Tailgates

Sparky’s Touchdown Tailgates is an unrivaled ASU Alumni celebration before home football games (it's too big and bold to be limited to a single location!). The gameday tailgates feature Sparky; the ASU Spirit Squad; food, food and more food; live music; and special giveaways. SAA student-members help plan and organize the tailgates, providing Sun Devil fans a one-of-a-kind experience ... in multiple locations!

Here's your sign! Selected SAA student-members are part of the Sun Devil Stadium show in this exclusive just-before-kickoff, on-field opportunity to hold the banner as Sparky busts through it and drives the crowd crazy!

Homecoming

Homecoming

Homecoming is an ASU tradition that brings together students, families, alumni and the Valley community to celebrate Sun Devil spirit. The festivities begin with Lantern Walk, a lantern-carrying, time-honored hike to the top of ‘A’ Mountain, ceremonially lighting up Tempe. SAA student-members also star in the ASU Homecoming parade, navigating their topical SAA float along University Drive, through the heart of the Tempe campus, to the delight of thousands of flag-waving, face-painted, enthusiastic Sun Devil Nation fans! 

Turnaround trip

Turnaround trip

This full-day experience will be a cross-stateline trip you will never forget (until the next time you take it with us)! Hop on the ASU bus and head west to California to watch our football-playing Sun Devils take on Bears, Bruins, Trojans or even a Cardinal, depending on the schedule, in a big-time Pac-12 rivalry game. You'll get the full gameday experience, from attending the exclusive pregame tailgate festivities to cheering on the Sun Devils in enemy territory. Then, with victory in hand, we do the turnaround and head home to ASU! 'Forks up! Event details coming soon!  

Beat U of A

Beat UofA Week

Beat UofA Week starts with guarding and protecting our venerable ‘A’ on ‘A’ Mountain. It's your chance to play a pivotal part in helping keep our ‘A’ gold, keeping an eye out for those crazy Wildcat fans from down south who think they can mess with our 'A'! You’ll also participate in a T-shirt exchange: Trade in a red shirt for a brand-new gold ASU T to wear at the ASU vs. UA football game! Event details coming soon!

Legends Luncheon

Legends Luncheon

SAA student-members are invited to attend the annual Legends Luncheon, one of ASU Alumni’s head-turning, autograph-seeking signature events.
