Just wanted to add, I went to Savannah State College for a year in the mid-1970s to get my GPA up. It was a really bad joke then. Corruption and incompetence were rampant from the janitors to the head of the “college”. It’s sole purpose was to give black students diplomas, not an education. Cheating was widespread and common even though academic standards were more appropriate for a middle school. Teachers looked the other way lest they be called racist. While I was there I saw football players take out pre-written essays during the state mandated Regent’s Exam. These tests were sent in sealed boxes from the Regent’s Office and stored under lock and key in the President’s office. The essays were written by English Dept. personnel after the administration opened the tests to learn what the essay questions were. The year after I was there the President and several of the administration were fired for fraud involving collecting GI Bill funds for non-existent students. That this school still exists, is accredited, and receives taxpayer money is a travesty and a crime.
Myrtle Beach, SC, has much the same event, with much the same response. Lots of local businesses close up for that weekend.

(You didn't say nothing about no spelling police)
True dat.
It is known as the drive-thru college!!!
Apt.
It was also the first place I experienced open racism by blacks against whites. The place needs to be torn down.
Who says you need a sponsored event that’s been going on for the past 20 years in order for it to qualify for posting on Wiki?
While living near but thankfully not in that county and city (chatham/savannah for the past 20 years i can tell you that it is and has been a breeder of hate toward all whites. Savannah city government is laughable.
I once owned a turnkey company. I had a condo complex that had blacks and white union types. The blacks would leave trash and unclean refrigerators. The union types would steal the refrigerator and leave holes in every wall!!
