For the fourth year, Birmingham View has teamed up with Urbanham.com to bring the latest edition of The Classic Event Guide, featuring the best places to socialize, party, dine and play in Birmingham for the 71st Annual Magic City Classic, sponsored by State Farm.
The excitement grows year after year as the Classic continues to be the country’s No.1 HBCU football game. The event attracts tens of thousands of fans and tail-gaters each year, including new celebrities. This year, his royal funkiness, R&B bassist Bootsy Collins is leading the parade, literally, as the Classic’s Ambassador. And for the first time in its history, the game has generated more than $1 million in scholarships for the bowls’ schools, Alabama A&M and Alabama State University, according to event director Faye Oates of Bruno Event Team.
In all, the Magic City Classic generates an economic impact of more than $15 million on the Birmingham region. If you want to know where you can spend some of your time and money during the 2012 MCC party, this guide will show you where it’s going down during your weekend. Enjoy the festivities!
