Bronx, NY // October 10, 2020

The Redman Classic XVII took place Saturday in the Bronx. The annual tournament reunites a group of longtime friends, some of whom have known each other since elementary school. The Classic started in 2004 as an alternative to your typical bachelor party. Plenty of single guys want to go out with a bang, but a dinger? “We were like, ‘Let’s play stickball like we used to’,” said Frank McKeon, the event’s organizer, promoter, swag producer, on-site DJ, and appointed Commissioner. “We got together and decided this was something we would do from now on.”
