This isn't a real rivalry. The name came from the homecoming theme that year; the two teams aren't rivals. I know the woman who wrote the AL.com article and have talked with her personally about it. TheReluctantHipster (talk) 16:37, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, fails WP:NRIVALRY/WP:GNG with a lack of sources discussing the series and calling it a rivalry, by the title or otherwise. Note that neither of the sources seems to call it a rivalry, and the title also seems to only have been used in 2014. ansh 666 06:09, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as none of this amounts to actual genuine substance for its own article, not at all. SwisterTwister talk 20:51, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I have to agree with nominator and others, it does not seem to pass the notability standard required for rivalries here. It may in the future.--Paul McDonald (talk) 15:45, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
