Same reason white people don’t go to the Bayou Classic.


If you have ever been unfortunate enough to be in New Orleans for this, you know why people don't go the the Magic City Classic.

I was on a 2nd or 3rd date once in 2013. We drove to NOLA for dinner. I exited on Tchop and saw troopers directing traffic and knew I had fricked up. We did a U turn and headed back to BR.

Not to mention, it’s Alabama A&M vs Alabama State. 2 lower tier football schools. THE ONLY reason they care is because they are black. I wouldn’t attend a Idaho State vs Wyoming game either.

Legion Field is in the hood. I've went 3 times I believe. I enjoy the tailgating aspect before the game, but that shite becomes a warzone at night.

The last time I went, I had to start sprinting to my car because gunshots started ringing out. It's not like I was out there late night either. That was directly after the game ended.

I'd rather go to other football games where I don't have to worry about getting shot directly after the game.

But to be fair, before the game is almost always a good time. I've never felt unsafe during the pre-game tailgates.

Bingo.

I've gone tailgaiting at southern a few times with black folks I know. They had a section set up with black folks they know. They didn't let ANY riffraff in. Zero issues and a good time.

Alternately, you couldn't pay me to go wander around.

Good people of any color can recognize bad people of any color.

EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE THAT POOR MAN WRITES IS ABOUT HOW BAD THE WHITE MAN IS.

Never stops. Poor guy has issues.

Some do. My cousin's best friend has a daughter who is white. She is attending the Magic City Classic with her boyfriend who is black.

Who just goes to random FCS football games for schools that they have no ties to especially in a city like Birmingham with so much to do?

I've done that a lot, just not going a hoodrat bowl though, would probably like to see the bands but it's not worth the risk
