I HATE the game being in Birmingham; will it return there? Hope not!
Columbus offers so much more and there were more actitivies and tailgate and vendors in Columbus.
Attendance for Morehouse fans has dropped considerably over the decades to the point that our side was dang near empty.
I even saw the decline of Tuskegee fans but they still had a good showing in Columbus.
In Birmingham, I counted maybe 4 vendors, damn near NO tailgating, NO parade, NO battle of the bands, stepshow....just very shoe-string budgeted and it sucked!!!!
Not to mention, attendance in Legion Field didn't even reach 10K.
At this point, I'd rather take it back to Columbus Georgia.
My Morehouse brother Mayor Woodfin tried it....EPIC FAIL in Da'Ham!
AND NO, nobody expected it to compete with the Magic City Classic at all. I get what Woodfin is trying to do in Bham; he already stated he would like to see MORE HBCU classics
at Legion Field. Jackson State/Southern was supposed to be one of them. Maybe that will happen in the future??? |

Grand Daddy of hbcu Classic? Is this the oldest classic or oldest continuation of a classic possibly? I know the Orange Blossom Classic it one of the older ones, but it also stopped for years before being reignited in the last decade. |

I know the Orange Blossom Classic it one of the older ones, but it also stopped for years before being reignited in the last decade. As it pertains to oldest the term Grand Daddy is used out of context. They should have said GrandFather. The term Grand Daddy in sports has a whole different meaning. As in the showcase, the premier, the standard for all to reach. |

Bluedog, the Morehouse*Tuskegee Classic doesn't even begin to compare to Thee Bayou Classic.its like comparing boob sizes. Ours is itty-bittys while the Bayou Classic is TRIPLE-D's (o)(o)  Lawd, I hope DC don't kick me off the board for this!
