Homecoming season is here, bringing students, alumni, and the community together at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the nation. This time-honored tradition brings together old friends and new for the ultimate celebration of Black excellence.

There’s no homecoming without the tailgate. Actor and Howard University graduate, Lance Gross, pulled up outside the stadium before the big game. He couldn’t miss this year’s HBCU NY Classic, where his alma mater and Morehouse College faced off on the gridiron.

The four-time NAACP Image Award winner and ‘04 graduate made his rounds at the tents, reconnecting with familiar faces outside the stadium. It was a chance to catch up with his day-ones from his college years.

“Seeing the crew from back in the day, that’s what it’s all about. It’s like no time has passed. It feels like a family reunion throwing the football around with the squad like the old days.”

The food being the main event at the tailgate, Lance made himself a plate with a little bit of everything.

“Tailgating before the game, that’s where the real fun is. Good people, good vibes, and of course the food. You already know. If it’s grilling, I’m eating. Ribs, burgers, the food here is on another level.”

But when he started feeling the occasional heartburn and upset stomach, Lance reached for his TUMS Gummy Bites for fast relief.

“All that good eating — now here comes the occasional heartburn and upset stomach. Good thing I’m always ready with my TUMS Gummy Bites. No way I’m letting that ruin my day. And just like that, I’m good. Now let’s get back to the turnup.”
