The Union-Jenks rivalry has made its way from the football field to the big screen. The documentary film "King of the Mountain" hits the theater tonight and NewsChannel 8's Keith Taylor sat down with actor Brian Presley, who narrates the film and once played for the Jenks Trojans. King of the Mountain is a documentary film featuring the historic rivalry between the Union Redskins and Jenks Trojans, which have combined to win the past 11 Class 6A state championships. Jenks has won eight and Union the other three. Union is ranked number one in Class 6A this season and the Trojans are second.

The film will be shown beginning Thursday night, October 25th through Sunday, October 28th at the Dickinson Starworld 20 located at 101st and Memorial and the Riverwalk Theater located along the Jenks Riverwalk.

It's taken Rick Shadle forever to get that thing finished.

Rick is a good guy.

He produced my television commercials when I was just starting out.

It has.  And the reviews I've seen so far, kind of make me wonder if it even be worth buying the DVD, whenever that's out.

BUT, same subject, different venue, there is also a 30 minute Jenks vs Union documentary on "Versus."  Don't know the channel, somewhere around 250 I think on Cox.  It's done by NFL Networks, it's 30 minutes long, and it's showing 4 times this weekend.

Sux for me.  I tried to have digital cable installed yesterday.  Turns out the cable in the attic and wall drops are all "tulsa cable" vintage and need to be overhauled according to the tech. [xx(]  Also explains my sub 900 KPBS down and 200 KPBS up with my internet.  

Can I come over and watch it at your place MC?  I promise I won't tell any of my lies. [}:)]

Sure, I'll DVR it for you.  [:P]

According to that Versus website, it does come on again toward the end of November.  They're doing 6 games in 6 weeks I think, then running them all again at various time.
