Joseph McNeil, Franklin McCain, Ezell Blair, Jr., and David Richmond were all freshman at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University. On February 1, 1960, around 4:30, these four young men went and sat at the lunch counter that was located inside the Woolworth store. They first went into the store and bought some toothpaste and other items from the desegregated counter with no problems. Then, they went to the segregated lunch counter, at the same store, and were refused service. The lunch counter staff refused service to the young men, per the store policy, and the manager asked the young to leave. The young men staid until the store closed. The following day, there were other students who were recruited from other campus groups…
Football is a game of force and power, and the answer to problems on the field often is "Hit him harder" or “run faster.” Success is based on dominating the offensive and defensive lines and, if possible, not turning the ball over during the game. The U.S. Justice Department is looking into the BCS system. The DOJ wonders if it violates antitrust laws. It wonders why, when every other college sport has a playoff system, major college football does not.…
The competitive advantage of the College Football Hall of Fame has the potential to be very strong. What makes the CFHOF hard to duplicate is that it offers a hands-on, personalized, customer experience that is driven by technology. The CFHOF also has an ideal sized facility, which allows for the technology-driven attraction to get a good value for the cost of operations. An attraction that is too big might find it too expensive to depend so heavily on similar technology, while a facility too small might view the cost to be too expensive to depend so heavily on technology, in addition to the fact that the hospitality/entertainment attractions rely on the unpredictable human factor to generate revenue.…

When driving up to the roadhouse on a Saturday night, the first thing the eye sees is a parking lot full of cars and a big, neon sign reading “Texas Roadhouse.” Neon signs can be a very powerful tactic to pulling people inside. The color and brightness suggests fun and warmth. Neon also triggers certain images and places to come to mind. It often associated with bars and alcohol. This subconscious link may attract certain people and repel others. When families with small children go out to eat, they may not want to go into a restaurant that reminds them of bars and rowdy people. The same goes for older folks who prefer a nice peaceful country dinner. They might be better off next door at the Cracker Barrel. Others love the idea of a fun, energetic place to eat with an old school jukebox and Johnny Lee blasting. Texas Roadhouse is also known for its country music that is always coming through the speakers. They play all kinds of country music- from bluegrass to the newest Taylor Swift single. By being the only genre the restaurant plays, it could potentially lose costumers due to the fact that they hate country music. Although many people love it and think it goes perfectly with the style of the roadhouse.…

All of the parking lots near the arena were packed with cars, bumper to bumper. People were running against the brutally frozen air from blocks away to get inside of the warm arena and take their seats. Flooded with people trying to get their snacks before the game, the paths to finding an open seat grew increasingly smaller. Vendors yelled to advertise their merchandise, enticing the people who were crowding the arena. The smell of buttery popcorn filled the air, along with the smell of smoke from the grills. Vendors ran frantically, selling everything that they had and struggling to create more product. The seats began to fill with green, white and red as people represented the Minnesota team on their home…
The pre-game experience of a Red Wings game at The Joe is like no other. Finding parking and joining the sea of red jerseys rambling the streets brings immediate excitement. The first stop is the famous Hockey Town Café where savory food is enjoyed while also spending time admiring all the pictures, jerseys, and history from years past. Naturally, the server will chit chat about the upcoming game and current players’ stats while game highlights are being broadcasted on immense televisions that surround the vast space. Then it is time to step out into the frigid Detroit winter with a brisk walk down the street. When passing the famous Fox Theater, the doormen call out, “Have fun at the game!” Entering the transit station, it’s time to join more fans on the People Mover, an above ground rail system that runs through downtown Detroit, weaving in and out of buildings, taking patrons anywhere from the General Motors headquarters…
Outside the Coliseum is the diehard, devoted fan base. At 7 am the parking lot is filled with diehard fans that come early to tailgate prior to the game. As you make your way to the entrance of the Coliseum the spices and smell of perfectly seasoned food attacks your senses. You can’t help but notice the camaraderie and friendships formed while the alcohol flows. It is in the parking lot you see the dedication and years of loyalty displayed by its fans. In the front row nearest to the stadium stands the most dedicated fan. An older man, scruffy looking stands next to his Winnebago. He is dressed in the traditional garbs for the day. His Winnebago is covered from front to back in Cardinal and Gold; from his speakers blares the schools song ‘Fight On’. Walking by he gives you the greeting of the day ‘Fight on’ and talks about the upcoming slaughter that is to commence…
It would not be much of a stretch to say that being a Mizzou Tiger runs in my blood. I grew up getting plenty of exposure to Mizzou from my grandmother, a diehard Tigers fan that attends almost every home basketball game, my mother, who is herself a Mizzou alumnus, as well as my older cousins who both graduated from Mizzou, giving the University a constant presence in my life. Then, as I reached high school I received additional exposure to the University as a result of it hosting the state tournaments for Speech and Debate, Science Olympiad, and basketball throughout my four years, however I truly fell in love with Mizzou when I came to visit for a Scholar’s Day event the summer before my senior year. Seeing the campus in the heart of summer,…
