Dixie Classic

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This event is not to be confused with the Dixie Bowl, another college football post-season game staged in Birmingham, Alabama in the 1940s, or the Dixie Classic (Basketball Tournament) or the Dixie Classic Fair.

The Dixie Classic was a post-season college football bowl game played at Fair Park Stadium in Dallas, Texas, following the 1921, 1924, and 1933 seasons. It was phased out in favor of the Cotton Bowl. The 1922 game is famous for the beginning of the Texas A&M 12th Man tradition.
