Ninth Island Showdown-Weekender #2 (Hawaiian Airlines & Fremont Hotel)

Its football Saturday at Sam Boyd Stadium and time for the “Ninth Island Showdown” as the Rainbow Warriors battle the Rebels of UNLV. The winner receives the rights to the Island Showdown Trophy, in the shape of a gold pineapple and nicknamed “The Ninth Island”. This award ceremony began in 2017 and now each year the pineapple will be on the field, with the winning team taking it home.

 

This is the ultimate face-off between Hawai’i and UNLV, marking a 50-year-old rivalry that began on October 25th, 1969. The schools have faced each other 28 times with the Rainbow Warriors leading the all-time series, 16-12.

 

Football Saturday begins with the official pre-game UH Tailgate Party held in the Main Street Station parking lot, drawing over 1,000 Hawai’i fans. From there, it’s a short bus ride to Sam Boyd Stadium as the battle begins. After the UH victory, back to downtown Las Vegas to celebrate into the wee hours!  

 

If you have any doubts on how exciting this game will be, below, a headline from last year’s match-up.
