Grambling City Guide

Your practice base is the Fredrick C. Hobdy Assembly Center on the Grambling State campus, with home games next door at Eddie G. Robinson Memorial Stadium. Grambling is tiny, so most Tigers live on campus-adjacent Grambling or just five miles east in Ruston, the area's safe, walkable college-town hub.
