Hey Bama Fan,
question for you. football related because, well - it's about football.
I'm thinking about bringing my family to the A&M/Alabama game later this year. a question or two.
(a) how do I get there? (yeah, I recognize if I were on the A&M boards - this is where the flames would start. we call it the "zoo" - so I don't mind). I don't see that you can actually fly in to Tuscaloosa. is it best to fly in to Birmingham, or possibly Atlanta?? my plan would be to fly in on Friday and return Sunday. googling around it sounds like driving Birmingham / Tuscaloosa can be quite the traffic jam before and after games.
(b) which leads me to my next question. where should I stay. frankly, I'm thinking Tuscaloosa. enjoy your fine city for the weekend and drive to the airport Sunday following. thoughts?? good hotels or B&B's??
(c) how about good places to eat?
(d) any kid friendly stuff to do pending game time?
Lay it on me Tide. I welcome what I'd expect from the "zoo"; but feel pretty comfortable that you folks will offer me some good feedback.
Grats on arguably the #1 recruiting class, again.......... Look forward to seeing you guys in the trenches (with hopefully a better defensive effort and some semblance of a replacement for JFF!)
Gig 'Em
Good Ag
PS - not sure what this says about the IQ of a Good Ag vs Tide ;>) I live in Houston. sorry about that. should have included in original.
