2) Florida Blue Florida Classic — Florida A&M vs. Bethune-Cookman (Orlando, FL)

One of the biggest annual crowds in HBCU football with a rivalry that splits families and cities right down the middle. Marching “100” precision meets B-CU’s Pride passion, and the stands react to every hit like it’s a chart-topping single. The location makes it family-friendly: theme parks by day, classic energy by night.
Signature moments: Alumni parties, vendor villages, and a halftime that feels like a national tour stop.
Pro tip: Park and enter early—pregame is part of the show. Brunch on Sunday doubles as a victory lap.
