Probably the hottest game I ever attended as well. Didn't help that it rained hours before
What road venues have you traveled to see the Crimson Tide play?

If you are lucky, you might get to grow old, too. But be aware - they are not kidding when they say that getting old isn't for sissies.
Not asking you to & I don’t necessarily consider it that either. Was just posting about my experiences.
Can't recall year, but saw Bama in South Bend sometime in the 80's. Tiger Stadium, Jerrys World, Ole Sis (in Jackson). This was the game we fell behind something like 21 or 28 to 0 and won. Also saw Bama in Memphis (can't recall year but wasn't a bowl game) Lastly, Columbia MO and Starkville.
Forgot, Arkansas in LR.
RTR!

Growing up in Ohio, Alabama seemed so far away it was pretty much a dream to think I could see the Tide play in person. I was able to go to a couple of games, just kind of by luck, being in the right place the right weekend. In the late 90's I figured it was just a weekend trip to make a game, so I started going more often. My goal is to see Bama play in each SEC venue. I've made to all of them except for MSU, Texas A&M and Missouri. And I've seen 8 games in BDS, plus this year's spring game.
(1) 1980 Knoxville, Coach Bryant’s last victory in Neyland. My uncle lived in Knoxville, and I had to make a trip there, so I planned it for the Third Saturday in October
(2) 1994/95 Citrus Bowl vs Ohio State. I was assisting with a marching band at the time, and we were performing in the Citrus Bowl parade. the game turned out to be my team vs. my Alma Mater, so I had to stay on a day or two and see the game.
(3) 1996 Georgia Dome, SEC Championship game vs Florida, also 2014 vs West Virginia and 2015 SEC Championship game vs Florida
(4) 2002 Vandy, the stands were 80% Crimson
(5) 2003 Hawaii, great trip disappointing game
(6) 2004, 2009, and 2013 Kentucky, I can do that in a day from Ohio
(7) 2004 LSU-should have won this game, horrible no PI happened right in front of me, changed the momentum of the game
(8) 2005 South Carolina, great game
(9) 2005 Ol Miss, won on field goal as time expired
(10) 2006 Florida at the Swamp
(11) 2008 Georgia, the Black Out game
(12) 2009 Iron Bowl
(13) 2010 Rose Bowl National Championship
(14) 2010 Arkansas
Altogether, Alabama is 20-6 in the games I attended.

Did Bama win or lose at the Memphis game you attended? If it was a loss it was 1987. If it was a win, I think it would have been 1985 or 1991.
Our only trip to South Bend was in November 1987, and we got waxed.
We fell behind Ole Miss, 21-0, in 1989 and won, 62-27. The game was 10/7/89. It's the day my ex and I began going steady.
If we played Memphis State, it was either:
1985 - we won
1987 - we lost
1991 - we barely won
We played Arky in LR in 92 and 96.
The 92 game we won, 38-11, and Joe Kines was the interim for Arky.
In 96 - I was at that one and we won, 17-7.
I have been blessed to be at many ....
All BCS/National Championships since 1991
The Rose Bowl vs USC
All SEC stadiums except Florida, TAM, and Missouri
Dallas and Atlanta for kickoff games, and all SEC Championships
Jaguars Stadium vs FSU
Multiple bowl games in FL (Outback, etc ...)
Hoping to be heading to California come January

Commonwealth/Kroger Field/UK multiple times, Williams-Brice Stadium/Columbia, SC (USC). I will never go back to Williams-Brice, worst I ever got treated at a sporting event. Wasn't impressed with the stadium, either.
Pasdena vs UCLA
Orange Bowl vs Meechigan
Honolulu vs Hawa'ii
Sugar Bowl vs Utah
Notice a pattern here? That's why I hardly attend away games.
