Surely you know this by now, but in case you haven’t heard, Mississippi State is playing in the Belk Bowl against North Carolina State in Charlotte, North Carolina this year, the program’s first appearance in the bowl. With the team in town December 26th through gameday on the 30th, and with many fans likely staying through New Year’s Eve, a compilation of reasons to go to the Belk Bowl and things to do while there seemed like a good idea.
I had actually never been to Charlotte in my life until last year, but now in the last 14 or so months I’ve been through three times, as the SEC Network headquarters are located in Charlotte.
