The 76th edition of the biggest high school football game this side of the Mississippi in this big center-right nation of ours occurs tonight.
Annoyed by references to the game as the "Chili Bowl" or the "Taco Bowl," former Roosevelt coach Al Chavez, late former Garfield coach Vic Loya and late Garfield teacher Ted Davis successfully petitioned to legally name the game the East Los Angeles Classic.
Another crowd of at least 20,000 is expected to attend Friday to see whether Garfield (4-4, 4-0 league) will remain unbeaten in the Eastern League, or Roosevelt (5-3, 2-2) will stay in title contention. Roosevelt, the two-time defending Eastern League champion, leads the all-time series, 40-29-6.
