ATLANTA - In a show of school spirit and support, Vice President Kamala Harris was captured on camera cheering for Howard University at the Cricket Celebration Bowl, the HBCU football championship held at the Mercedes-Benz on Saturday.

The vice president, an alumna of Howard University, was seen alongside second gentleman Doug Emhoff and Sen. Raphael Warnock, passionately supporting the Bisons. However, despite the enthusiastic cheers, the game took an unexpected turn with Florida A&M University (FAMU) securing victory over Howard University with a final score of 30-26.

Following the intense match, Vice President Harris, along with her companions, visited the popular restaurant Busy Bee Cafe for a post-game meal before heading back to the nation's capital.
