Just so everyone knows Brigham City has a semi-professional football team and there is one here in Rexburg (or close to Rexburg atleast). Anyways the Brigham City team played the team up here last week. And just so you everyone knows how amazing the team is here is the score.

Also they played a team from Kamas in April and here is what the newspaper said about it.
One person was taken to the hospital last Saturday after a fight broke out during a semi-professional football game in Kamas.
He had just kind of jumped in the center of it to break it up. He wasn't involved in the initial altercation," said Summit County Sheriff's Office Capt. Joe Offret about the victim.
The Kamas Valley Mud Dogs call the new turf at South Summit High School home. But a recent game against the Brigham City Devil Dogs ended early after players from both teams began to brawl...
As a result of the fight, Kamas Valley Mud Dogs owner Ed Descamps fired some of his players. The Mud Dogs belong to the Rocky Mountain Football League.
"There were five players from my team who have received lifetime bans from the league," Descamps said. "It was an unfortunate incident that will never happen again because all we're trying to do is bring a good, positive thing to the town of Kamas.
Referees called the game with about five minutes remaining and the Mud Dogs were ahead 33-0.
"Referees told us that Kamas Valley initiated it and that's what was going into their report," said Robert Horne, general manager of the Brigham City Devil Dogs. "We were just defending."
