Personal Narrative: The Red Carpet Bowl

When you hear the words "Red Carpet Bowl" you immediately think of the annual football bowl games that they sponsor in the month of August to kick off the football season with a preseason celebration. I have been a spectator at these annual bowl games for over ten years. Once I entered high school I participated in the bowl games as a cheerleader, dancer, and band member. The Red Carpet Bowl committee provides a meal for each participating team and their cheerleaders in the bowl game. This delicious meal usually consists of a juicy piece of chicken, creamy potato salad, barbeque baked beans, and a slice of yellow cake. This meal was greatly appreciated by the football teams and their cheerleaders because they need some type of nutrition before they take part in a long night physical activity. As a cheerleader I know we appreciated the meal
These shirts serve as souvenirs for teams participating in the bowl games. This bowl game is also a great opportunity for high school players to have a true bowl game experience. The Red Carpet Bowl committee has given Porters Chapel, St. Aloysius, Vicksburg, and Warren Central High School football teams the opportunity to play against teams they would not usually come across like Gulfport and Wayne County. These Red Carpet Bowl T-shirts are worn proudly by the participating band members as well.The bands usually wear the shirts because it is extremely too hot to wear the traditional band uniforms. Over the years I have generated a collection of Red Carpet Bowl tees that I have accumulated over. The committee also hosts the Red Carpet Basketball Classic games for basketball players as well. This year the festivities were hosted at Warren Central High School. One member of the Red Carpet Bowl Committee mentioned how entertaining the intense cheer battle was between the cheerleaders from Warren Central High School and O’Bannon High School
