Description

CBS Miami September 3, 2021 This weekend's Orange Blossom Classic is more than just a football game for many alumni and students in historically Black colleges. It's a family reunion. After a 43 year absence, the celebrations surrounding football between historically Black schools are being revitalized around Sunday's game between Florida A&M University and Jackson State at the Hard Rock Stadium. There will be concerts, a parade, a job fair, pool parties, cookouts galore, spades games in the parking lot and a battle of the school bands. The weekend festivities also provide opportunities to raise money for the historically Black schools. CBS Local Digital Media personalizes the global reach of CBS-owned and operated television and radio stations with a local perspective.
