Buffett’s Alma Mater to Host Parrothead Night
April 7th, 2011
In 1969, Jimmy Buffett graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg with a bachelor’s degree in History.
Next Friday Buffett’s alma mater will have “Parrothead Night at the Pete” for the Golden Eagles’ baseball game against the University of New Orleans.
The USM team will wear Caribbean-themed jerseys, which will be sent to Buffett to sign, and they will be auctioned off. Proceeds go to USM’s Dugout Club and to the Mary Loraine Peets Buffett Scholarship, in honor of USM alumnus Jimmy Buffett’s mother.
