Student Fan Experience
This was my first time at an HBCU Classic, and the energy was unreal! From the marching bands to the tailgate vibes, I felt like I was part of something much bigger than just a game. Definitely coming back next year!
— Jasmine R., Jackson State Sophomore
Alumni Pride
As a proud Grambling alum, nothing beats the feeling of seeing my school represented on such a big stage. The game was electric, the tailgate was unforgettable, and the community spirit gave me goosebumps!
Marcus D., Grambling State University Class of 2005
Parent Perspective
We brought our whole family, and it was worth every moment. Safe, fun, and full of culture — my kids got to see the bands, try the food, and really feel the tradition. We’ll be making this a family tradition too.
— Tanya H., Proud HBCU Mom
Community & Culture
This event isn’t just about football — it’s about culture, pride, and bringing people together. The tailgate felt like a reunion, and the game was the cherry on top. HBCU spirit is unmatched!
— Derrick S., Las Vegas Resident
VIP Experience
The VIP package was beyond worth it! Great seating, exclusive access, and a chance to meet former players — it was everything I could have asked for. If you’re coming, go VIP!
— Alisha P., HBCU Sports Fan
Nonprofit Partner
