MOSS POINT -- It’s known as one of the top high school football rivalries in Mississippi.
The Moss Point Tigers and the Pascagoula Panthers will go head to head for the traditional rivalry game Sept 12 at Dantzler Memorial Stadium in Moss Point. The game is one of the most anticipated in Jackson County every year.
This friendly competition sparked Moss Point to start a new tradition three years ago where the hosting team invites the other over to its neck of the woods for a special breakfast.
This year’s breakfast is scheduled for 9 a.m. Sept. 11 at Burnham Drugs in Downtown Moss Point.
Rivals trade barbs before big game

The school district superintendent, high school principal, head football coach, and mayor from Moss Point and Pascagoula are slated to attend.
This is not your typical breakfast. Participants from both sides usually engage in “big talk” to say why their team is going to win this year.
The rivalry between Moss Point and Pascagoula is included in a new book, Y’all vs Us, which features the top 15 high school football rivalries in Mississippi.
The books will be on sale for $35 at Moss Point’s home gate.
