Shaw University Bears Football Tickets

Founded in 1912 in Raleigh, North Carolina, Shaw University Bears football brings HBCU pride to the CIAA with a tradition of toughness and community. The Bears have raised conference hardware several times, including CIAA titles in 2004, 2007, 2008 and 2010, a run led by standout head coach Darrell Asberry. Every season circles the crosstown showdown with Saint Augustine’s, the Raleigh Classic, where bragging rights feel as big as a championship. Home Saturdays in Raleigh are unmistakable: maroon and gold everywhere, a lively student section, drumlines and cheer squads setting the rhythm, and tailgates that turn into reunions for alumni and neighbors. The intimate setting puts you close to the action, while Shaw’s welcoming game-day vibe makes first timers feel like regulars and long-time fans feel right at home.
