They’re the best of the best. Roggin’s Heroes Thanksgiving is back with the seventh helping of a holiday tradition.
Pull up a chair and join us at the StubHub Center to count the blessings of Southern California’s top high school football stars.
A handful of our alumni have reached the NFL. Our next generation is hungry to fulfill their dreams but they’re even more hungry when it comes to devouring the holiday feast.
Kayvon Thibodeaux wasted no time tackling the turkey. The big defensive end is the top prospect in the nation and has college coaches licking their chops.
It’s a fun and festive atmosphere around our table, even when the guys start bringing up the times they’ve played each other on the field.

Their minds are unshakably focused on football. But the two-time Super Bowl winner tells them why going outside the game could help them succeed inside the lines.
One more course. It’s time for dessert! And time for a few of these guys to start piling on.
They have plenty to be thankful for this holiday.
And you’ll be grateful after watching our festive football family on Roggin’s Heroes Thanksgiving.
