BAYOU CLASSIC

• DATES:11/23/2018 - 11/25/2018
• LOCATION: Mercedes-Benz Superdome

It started out as a simple football game between two rival, historically Black universities and now, more than four decades later, it has morphed into something much larger.
The Event
This year’s 45th Annual Bayou Classic is now four days of events featuring a parade, fan festival, empowerment and career seminars, a battle of the bands and much more. All of these events culminate with a football matchup between the Tigers of Grambling State and the Jaguars of Southern University on Saturday, November 24th.
Once again this year, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome will host the “Bayou Clash” game that gave rise to all the festivities. The Fan Fest will begin on Saturday, November 24 at 11:30 a.m. at Champions Square and this year’s kickoff time at the Dome is at 4:00 p.m.
Tickets are now on sale and can be ordered from Ticketmaster or purchased at the gate.
Entertainment
One of the entertainment highlights of the lead-up to the big game is provided by the two schools’ marching bands. The Grambling "Marching Tigers" and the Southern "Human Jukebox" will again compete in a "Battle of the Bands" event held the night before the game in the Superdome.
Those same two marching bands will lead the Eighth Annual Bayou Classic Parade on Saturday, November 24, from the French Market to the Superdome. The parade will showcase floats, marching bands, military units, alumni groups, motorized units and elements of the Zulu Social Aid and Pleasure Club, New Orleans’ oldest predominantly African American Mardi Gras parading organization.
Here is the full schedule of open-to-the-public events for the Bayou Classic:

• Friday, Nov. 23: Greek Show, Mercedes-Benz Superdome; Starts 6 p.m.

Book a Hotel
Several hotels, including the Hyatt Regency adjacent to the Superdome, are offering special discount rates to Bayou Classic attendees. You can view a list of these hotels and their rates on the event’s website.
The Rivalry
The rivalry between the two schools dates back to 1974, when the first Bayou Classic was held in New Orleans' Tulane Stadium. Since then, tens of thousands of fans have gathered at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, not only for this so-called “Bayou Clash” game, but also for what is now almost a full week of festivities in New Orleans.
Both teams, over the years, have produced an astounding number of players who went on to the NFL and other professional football leagues, some of whom are enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Longtime Grambling Head Coach, the late Eddie Robinson, who led his team to the first five Bayou Classic triumphs, is the winningest coach in NCAA Division I football history with 408 victories.
Tickets
For tickets, visit Ticketmaster or visit the Superdome box office. Tickets sell out early every year, so make sure you get yours ahead of time!
Broadcast
The game will be televised on the local NBC affiliate, WDSU Channel 6. 
If you prefer to watch the game on TV, there are many sports bars in and around the downtown area and elsewhere in the city where you can enjoy the thrill of the game. Click here for a list of New Orleans sports bars.
