Bank of America Corp. may pull its title sponsorship of the 100 Black Men of Atlanta Football Classic.The Charlotte-based bank's three-year contract as title sponsor of the college game in Atlanta ends after this year's event on Sept. 26. While the bank will maintain some level of sponsorship, it likely will not continue as title sponsor. BofA has been the title sponsor since 2004.
According to 100 Black Men's 2007 tax returns, it paid $287,867 to Tennessee State University, which plays in the game, and $255,081 to Florida A&M University, Tennessee State's annual opponent.
Atlanta Sports Council President Gary Stokan says his group would help find a new title sponsor if asked.
