'Classic' back in Circle City for 32nd year



INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana -- It's that time of year again — the leaves are turning, the breeze is blowing, and the Circle City Classic is bringing marching bands, football fans and supporters of the Black community and Indiana's youth to Indianapolis for the 32nd consecutive year.

The annual "Classic" — put on by Indiana Black Expo and Indiana Sports Corp. — raises funds for college scholarships for deserving Hoosier students. According to the Classic's website, proceeds from the event have funded more than $3 million in scholarships.

There are several events planned for the Classic, including the Miss Circle City Classic Coronation, a prayer service and a pep rally, all culminating with the main events on Sept. 26 — a parade, tailgating, football game and marching band competition.

Here's what you need to know for the big day, Sept. 26:
