The 2017 Gumbo Chili Showdown will be held April 8, 2017, preceding the
University of South Alabama Jaguars Spring Game at Ladd-Peebles Stadium.
The event supports a scholarship at the USA College of Medicine created
in memory of Regan Robinson Young, a medical student at USA who was
diagnosed with advanced colon cancer in 2008 at the age of 23. She passed away four months shy of graduation. The
scholarship provides assistance to a rising senior medical student who
embodies Regan’s spirit and character.
Teams will compete against one another for the crown of Best Gumbo or
Chili as judged by both the audience, faculty and celebrity judges.
Tickets to attend the event are $10 day-of, and kids under 10 years of age are admitted for free. Tickets can be pre-ordered for $8 by emailing gumbochili@gmail.com.
