The first East-West All-Star Football Game was played in 1949.

The football game has featured hundreds of future NCAA Division I stars and many of the boys who have suited up have gone on to successful careers in the NFL.

More than 3,400 North Carolina boys have had the chance to wear the royal of the East or the scarlet of the West in the rivalry.
