Bayou Classic is a big deal! Even if you didn't go to one of these HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges & Universities), the whole city gets drawn into the rivalry. There's a whole week of great activities (golf tournament, Thanksgiving Day parade, Battle of the Marching Bands, concerts and more).
I am particularly excited about 100 Black Men of Metro New Orleans Inc. joining forces with the Classic to provide scholarships to needy students. Have you checked the costs lately? not even middle class families can afford the price of colleges.
After the game on Saturday, November 30th, 6 pm, the 100s are presenting RiverJam -- probably the coolest, sexiest live music steamboat cruise along the Mississippi River to raise funds for its educational initiatives and scholarship fund.
It's nothing like a good party for a good cause. Tell 'em, gigi sent you.
