1926 – 2026
100 Years of GHOE
North Carolina A&T State University has been holding homecoming since 1926. In 2026 it turns one hundred.
The centennial
What is actually being celebrated
Worth being precise about, because Aggies will be: this is the hundredth year of The Greatest Homecoming On Earth — not the university’s hundredth birthday. NC A&T was founded in 1891 and is well past a century. GHOE is the thing that dates to 1926, and the artwork says so: 1926 – 2026.

Heads up
This is an independent commemorative store, not an official university shop. For anything about GHOE itself, go to NC A&T. For anything about an order, that is us.
Why a store
Made to order, made properly
A hundredth homecoming only happens once, and most of what gets sold around a weekend like this is forgettable — a blank from a catalogue with a logo pressed on it, cracked by February.
So this is the other thing. Six original designs, printed on pieces that will still be in the closet and on the desk in ten years. Commemorative apparel and keepsakes for one hundred years of the Greatest Homecoming On Earth.
Everything is printed and finished by Apostle Casual Style — nothing is drop-shipped, and nothing ships that we have not looked at.
The long view
1926 to 2026
A hundred years of the same weekend, and of people coming back for it.
1891
The university
North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University is founded in Greensboro. Blue and gold, and the Bulldog that goes with them.
1926
Homecoming begins
The tradition that becomes the Greatest Homecoming On Earth starts here — and then does not stop.
2026
One hundred
A century of it. 100 years of legacy. 100 years of pride. Aggie Pride Forever.
