Every year for the past 66 years Birmingham, Al has this huge classic called the Magic City Classic. This is where Alabama State University and Alabama A & M University come to Legion Field to play football. I had a chance to attend this event, and like all the years I have went I really enjoyed myself. However this year was a little different. AAMU, for the last 5 years, have beat ASU in this game. This year ASU pulled off the win and this made fans cheer, yell, scream, and shout. I am proud to say that I am one of those fans who joined the others to celebrate the win over AAMU.
The best thing about the classic is the "wave". The way the stadium is made its connected like a big oval, so every year a certain side or group of people start of the wave by standing up with their hands in the air and then it continues like a domino effect around the whole stadium for about 4 times. It is so fun once everyone join in. I told my mom this is the best part of the classic and I look forward to this every year.
