While some will tell you that Summer technically ends on Sept. 21, let’s be real: Labor Day weekend is the unofficial end of Summer. The holiday weekend is the last bastion of the most hopeful and carefree of the four seasons. After Labor Day Weekend, it’s time to shift away from the carefree mindset of Summer and into the more industrious mindset of the Fall Season.
Labor Day Weekend also serves as the bridge into the Fall’s most cherished gift: the College Football season. Over the last 15 years, College Football’s opening weekend has turned into a spectacle that’s now capable of being branded on its own terms.
