Circle City Classic

The only thing different I would like to see, in order to keep from losing the traditional family feel of the classice, is to solicit some volunteers to greet the guest all in the name of the classic. I would even be willing to head that up I love hospitality work. Thanks

The Classic in my opinion was under attended. It did not have a vibe of a college classic that I am acclimated to attending.

The game was great. The fans were respectable. The old school concert was amazing. My 20 month old grandson never stopped dancing:)

I felt sorry to North Carolina, but Tennessee really did go to win it. The battle of the bands was a disappointment. It was so clear that Tennessee had won it hands down. The disapointment was that the Drum Line did not battle. That would have made the 5 hour trip a little more exciting. How ever we did have great seats!

Wonderful venue. Great time. Good seats. Loved every minute.

The battle of the bands was one of the best I've seen in 30 years! The football was amazing as well... like old times! Way to go teams!

Enjoyed the game from a stadium box, first time ever from that vantage point.

... as usual, an excellent production in a warm "make-ya-feel-good" city!!! I'm always amazed how Indianapolis welcomes events of this nature - unlike Cincinnati for example!!! The good Lord willing, I will be in attendance again next year!!! And BTW, Lucas Oil Stadium is outstanding - just luv it!!!

Had a good time, go on your payday though and stay overnight.

Lucas Stadium was outstanding, seats where on the 40- 45 yard line. There were no obstructions in the viewing of the field, well lit.

Circle Classic was a great weekend away from home. Great event in a great city!! Love the stadium

Great classic! I loved the Lucas Oil Stadium. It was like a Stadium/Dome combo, very spacious, crowd friendly. Dwntown Indianapolis is perfect for classic attendees. Everything you need is dwntown, restaurants great mall, plenty of hotels, more shops all within walking distance of the stadium. Parade right dwntwn...perfect. Not much outside dwntwn as far as classic events, but overall a good classic to attend.

I love HBCU football and the game was excellent. The tickets that I got were great, we really had a great time at the event.

Battle of the Band or Drum Line Battle suck so bad. Very BORING! Need to do BETTER!!!!!

the game wasn't that good but the tsu band was good! The statium is the best I was in the club level on the visitor side the statdium looked amazing I didn't c a bad seat it was worth the money to sit tgere cuz I will never get that close to a colts game!

The game was okay. I can't remember who won. Just playing TSU Tigers. But the atmosphere the parade despite the rain, the battle of the bands, and the weekend in Indy was off the chain. Would gladly go back. Also, a shout out to Flint Northern High School Marching Band they represented F'Town very well.

Awesome. The drive from Milwaukee is worth the trip. Next year.

The football game was very good. It was nice to see so many people together having fun. So much excitement and energy. We will be there next year can i get the same seats?

i'm not affiliated with either team; however, CONGRATULATIONS TIGERS! I enjoyed everything about the CC-Classic this weekend ... from walking the streets with who-knows-who to the announcing of the battle of the bands winner. Then, afterwards, even as breezy as it was I loved visiting the vendors and listening to the variety of music being played... man oh man, have we got talent! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE OUR BLACK PEOPLE. ;-) Contrary to what others say and think, we do know how to come together with dignity, be competitive, support each other, and still have a great time! If I could change one thing... it would definitely be the way the tikets are sold. I was sitting up in the 410 section and noticed SO many lower section seats vacant. I know you pay for what you get and get what you pay for, but HEY, it would be nice, but highly unlike that it will sale-out so why not just have one set ticket price and "open" seating??? Of course reserve seats for the real VIP folks (the college VIPs, honorees' families, school staff, etc) but you know what I'm saying, right?! yeah, that's it! Everything else... great!!!

Everyone wwas wonderful !! We had a great time tailgating

My first time attending. Next year I will return and bring my entire family.

It was wonderful. I loved it. The staduim is beautiful.

The event and all the extras were very good. The bands were wonderful. The people were friendly. It was well attended. I enjoyed myself.

I've been going to the classic for over 20 years now and it is always been a joy but I have to say, the schools haven't been exciting as they were back in the day. Which for me makes me not want to come cause the ticket prices are way out of whack for the quality of the show. Wasn't terrible but not worth paying a hundred and something dollars for 2 tickets. I enjoy myself more in nose bleed seats at a Colts game paying the same. Entertainment needs to be picked up.

Enjoyed the game Why it should be necessary to add more I.f here is beyond me

Circle City Classic event was great! Even the rain didn't dampen the events (parade). Only thing missing- T-shirts! (Would love to have had as a souvenir.)

I've attended the Classic 4 times now: (twice with my husband, and twice with my girlfriends). It's been a fantastic event each time. The Circle City Classic is a great weekend event and Indianapolis, IN is a great host city.

2 great bands put on a show! I was disappointed in the previous years, but round 2 of this battle was epic

The Circle City Classic has become a part of our yearly vacationing plans. It has given my kids an opportunity to dream of going to college and now they are putting things in place to make those dreams come true...and they are only 11 and 13. The Classic ought to be on every parent's calendar every year!

Had a blast. I will be a regular at the Circle City Classics!

I had a wonderful time with my family. I plan on going again next year

Great event! Great venue! The Battle of the Bands at half time was excellent!

I truly enjoyed myself at the Classic this past weekend. Not only was the tailgate awesum wit my gurls but we ended wit a triple whammy...KSU won the classic, KSU band won their battle, and the concert after was really nice! Will I do the classic again next year if KSU is invited? MOST DEFINATELY. No question...

The football game was a nail biter, both central state and northern Kentucky played well. The halftime show with the marching bands was not what it use to be. During the game I was expecting more from the bands although northern Kentucky marching band did their thing keeping everyone entertained during media and time out breaks. The post game concert was very enjoyable, but having everyone scrambling to move from the seats we paid for was absolutely ridiculous..

It was a very nice weekend of events the game was interesting for the first 3 quarters it was 14-0 then the last the quarter it kicked way up the losing team came up and won the game. The battle of bands was exciting. Outside of the event they have many vendors, we also went to the Comedy show again very eventful and exciting weekend perfect for students and families with a ton of info to take home.

Having a student in college that participates in this event offers a great opportunity for a parent to see their child perform in this wonderful setting. I travel from Cleveland, Ohio to be part of the event. My family and friends accompany me on this 5 hour journey and its worth the trip. looking forward to this trip this year!

The whole event was awesome! Nice family atmosphere. ...just fun and pleasant

Seats were Great. Facility was very clean. I wish that there would be different Teams at the event next year. Performers, were good, need some Old School Performers also.

I had fun at the game. And the entertainers were Awesome. I however do wish they would get more venders to sign up for outside. This would have made the trip complete....

Overall I had a good time and would definitely come again next year!

Love the game! The seats were great! The Halftime fun was SLAMMIN! The battle of the band was did there "thang" and the "love cam" was too cute!

totally awesome. Lucas Oil stadium was something amazing to see... had a wonderful fantabulous time...parking was a breeze too...going with family and friends next tear

Lucas Oil stadium was an excellent venue. Food was over priced . Good variety. Seats were very comfortable.would not hesitate to attend again. Excellent view.

It was very nice. I had a good time . Everything went smoothly.

AWESOME!!! This event was the highlight of my year!!! Enjoyed the football game! Enjoyed the halftime show! THE BANDS WERE AWESOME!!!! Great HBCU fellowship!!!

Great weekend, great seats, fun.....no complaints.

I just absolutely loved it because I attend CSU and been waiting to see them play in the classic, even though they lost it was a great game

I had a great time at the Classic. Then bands provided great entertainment. The atmosphere was great. It was all love. Just an overall good time.

It was a great game whether you were a graduate of either school.The atmosphere was whats important.

The halftime performance by both bands, Grambling and Alcorn St, was the highlight of the day! The Football Game was a Blowout! Alcorn St defeated Grambling 48 to 0!!! Ironically, tailgating was a bit disappointing! The event planners did NOT provide A SINGLE portable potty!!! Can you imagine tailgating for hours, at a College Game, without a single portable toilet! "Luckily there was a White Castle only 1/2 mile away from our lot"!! (that's sarcasm folks) For that reason alone, it's unlikely that we'll return!!

This was an outstanding event and I plan on attending next year.

The game was great....halftime awesome.....great seats!.....The only issue was that the persons working the stadium that day did not seem to know their way around !

The seats were nice for the price we paid. The stadium was within walking distance of the hotel

Unfortunately, the game wasn't good at all with Grambling getting beat 48-0 by Alcorn State. The bands were great! The fans were fun and everything worked perfectly with my tickets.

The game was a blow out 10-40. North Carolina won. Battle of the bands, great. Miguel's performance was terrific too! Great entertainment for the price!

This event will not go on the top of my Event list. The Venue was great but everything else SUCKED.

Enjoyed the Circle City Classic...It was my first visit to Indy and I thoroughly enjoyed myself... The people of Indianapolis have really embraced this event.

The game was very exciting! It kept me up and out of my chair that's for sure! I also love the battle of the bands! This year the band played all the up to date songs, that also had me singing and once again up and out of my chair!!!!! lol We missed the parade this year because it rained but we look forward to a bright and sunny weekend next year!!!

nice, entertaining. would attend event every year.

This even was loads of fun as always. I am never disappointed when I go to the Classic. The battle of the bands was unbelievable. The talent and creativity of the both TSU and NC A&T were outstanding. I hope to see you all again next year.
