Tempe Chamber Presents the 2025 ASU Sun Devil Football Kickoff Luncheon

by Paulette Pacioni

The Tempe Chamber of Commerce recently hosted the 2025 ASU Sun Devil Football Kickoff Luncheon presented by San Tan Ford. The Luncheon was held at the San Tan Ford Club perched high above the Mountain America Stadium.

Amidst a sea of maroon and gold, the event was packed full of fun and special guests as Sun Devil Football builds momentum for the start of Coach Kenny Dillingham’s follow-up to last year’s dream season. Fans heard from several of the players through a light-hearted panel interview moderated by Tim Healey, the voice of the Sun Devils. Many of the team’s rising stars, including quarterback Sam Leavitt, were in attendance, filling the room with contagious team spirit. The Sun Devils have high expectations following last year’s success in their Big 12 Conference debut, and the atmosphere in the room was electric!

“This event is a great opportunity for Tempe’s business community to rally behind Sun Devil Football and show our support,” said Robin Arredondo-Savage, president and CEO of the Tempe Chamber. “Sun Devil fans extend well beyond ASU’s campus — they’re part of the entire Valley. It’s also a fantastic place for local businesses to connect and network with key Tempe stakeholders. Bringing everyone together like this builds community pride and gives the team a real boost as they head into the season.”

Attendees met many of the 2025 coaches, cheerleaders and even band members while enjoying photo opportunities with players and Sparky, the Sun Devil Mascot.
