This year’s Grambling homecoming football game was against Mississippi Valley State University, and the Delta Devils brought their band, so there was a certain degree of battling between the bands during the game.

Tailgating is a big part of the Grambling homecoming experience, and a lot of people spend the day barbecuing and keeping up with the game by radio or TV. Some tailgaters hire DJ’s for their outdoor parties, and the smell of barbecue drifts all over the stadium.

A really cool new addition to the Grambling State University campus is the Eddie Robinson Museum, which opened in 2010. The museum celebrates the legacy of Coach Eddie Robinson, Grambling’s football coach who set an NCAA record for the greatest number of victories in a career. The museum contains trophies, photos, video footage, old Grambling football equipment from the early days, a wall featuring all the players from Grambling that made it into the NFL, and an exhibit about Grambling’s world-famous Tiger Band. There is also a gift shop, and admission is free, although donations are requested.

End of the Parade Route, Grambling Homecoming 2011

The Grambling Homecoming Parade ended near Eddie Robinson Stadium and the new Conrad Hutchinson Performing Arts Center, and the high school bands gathered there and had a sort of informal battle between the parade and the football game. 

The aftermath of the Grambling Homecoming Parade is always a pandemonium, particularly around the bookstore, cafeteria and student union.
