Oh, how I miss college. It's been over a decade since I graduated, and I did not even attend a big school. What would it have been like to attend a BIG-10 or SEC school? Let alone one of the campuses that were recently visited by one of the biggest rappers in the world.

On Wednesday night, multi-platinum artist Travis Scott and Fanatics CEO Michael
Rubin celebrated the new “Jack Goes Back to College” collaboration between Cactus Jack, Lids, Fanatics, and Mitchell Ness. The two titans of their industries took over college campuses to add fuel to the fire surrounding the new collection.

On Wednesday night, Travis and Michael surprised the LSU Football team (with athletes such as Jayden Daniels) and gifted the new collaboration to players on the team. From there, Michael and Travis went to the LSU bookstore for a midnight launch of the collection where LSU students were the first to get their hands on the new merch. Michael and Travis were also joined by LSU star athletes Angel Reese, Flau’jae Johnson, and Jayden Daniels, who signed autographs.
