FACTOID #151: The five countries with the highest coffee consumption are also the five countries whose citizens trust one another the most. Coincidence? Probably.
The DixieClassic was an annual college basketball tournament played from 1949-1961 in Reynolds Coliseum.
The field consisted of the 'big four' North Carolina schools: N.C. State (the host), Wake Forest, Duke, and UNC and four teams from across the country.
N.C. State head coach Everett Case originated the idea of the Classic.
When the Classic began in 1978, it was set up as a single-class show and it remained that way for the first 13 years.
DixieClassic, held in 1990, was the final single-class event and was one of the more profitable years until that time.
The first multiple-class DixieClassic, in 1991, featured 16 bands divided in 3 classes and proved to be even more profitable than the previous year had been.
