On Tuesday, Nov. 14, the Charlotte Sports Foundation and Tepper Sports & Entertainment announced an extension of their partnership to host events at the Charlotte stadium.
Included in the new agreement are the Duke’s Mayo Classic and the Duke’s Mayo Bowl. The bowl game has called Bank of America Stadium home for 22 years, officials said.
