Last week the Toyota Green Initiative Coalition took to the great city of Birmingham, AL for the largest Black College Classic in the nation, the 71st Annual Magic City Classic. This stop on the Toyota Green Initiative college tour hosted a variety of eco-conscious experiences, from planting gardens & eco-friendly fluorescent lighting at the Fairfield Community Center to an hosting a “healthy tailgate” during the big game at Legion Field. Spirits were high upon the announcement of Toyota expanding the message of sustainability by providing 22 Historical Black Colleges and Universities with a one-year lease of a Toyota Prius vehicle early next year.
That’s right CIAA and SWAC HBCU’s…. “You get a car, You get a car and YOU GET A CAR!”
(*in my Oprah Winfrey voice*)
In addition to the informative and entertaining eco-friendly experiences all weekend long by the Toyota Green Initiative, the ultimate healthy tailgate and Magic City Classic fun hit an all time high at Legion Field on Saturday during the Big Alabama State University vs Alabama A&M University football battle. Check out the tailgate, battle of the bands halftime show and all the football fun below.
