I do think this is the "elephant in the corner" but I will contribute as though it is not:
Here in Washington State we have the "Apple Cup." The annual game between the University of Washington Huskies and the Washington State University Cougars. The cats and the dogs. The campuses are located at opposite ends of the state. This game as a 123-year history. Alumni from both teams are highly active and engaged in this rivalry every time. It is a 'big deal.'
And the rivalry could not be more collegiate and respectful. These teams love each other, and fight against each other, like brothers. Then go to the pub afterwards.
