BAMAPOCALPYSE IS NIGH UPON US....

Some of the stuff below is from an old Fanshot I did in Feb. Anyway, with Football Season rapidly approaching, we need to get some final coordination worked out: 10 days til Football season. 12 Days till Alabama kicks off, and 47 days till Homecoming a/k/a The Bamapocalypse.
For those not on the Twit-o-sphere, there is some fantastic news that perhaps would be of interest to those seeking to interact/have a real-life meetup. (and, for those that are, check the #bamapocalypse tag).
It's happening. And it will be upon us sooner than you know.
A whole host of transcontinental lunatics will be descending upon Tuscaloosa/Birmingham on the weekend of Saturday, October 8, 2011 for an RBR/Bama Meet-n-Greet and Weekend that would give Bacchus a hangover..
This is the Vandy game, which means that not only will there be debauchery aplenty, the chances of a heartbreaking, mean-drunk-inducing loss is practically nil.
Thus, while we have a date, and plane tickets, and (for some people not named Stuck, our game tickets), we do not have the following:
- Meeting place: We will definitely be hooking up Bo at Egan's (seriously, tip the man well...baby needs a new pair of shoes). But, we do not have any pre-determined location on the Quad or other tailgating area. Local help/coordination in this area would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
- It seems that many of us will be chilling in B'ham on Thurs or Friday, I believe than Bamagirlinvegas, Queen and I (and likely many others), are flying into/staying in that port of call. Suggestions on boozeage, coordination of pickups, etc. are greatly welcome
- Comestibles: We gotta' get our grub on. Potluck? Catering? Good ole' fashioned 6:00 a.m. gametime drinking/cooking?
- Crash pads: Hopefully we'll have accomodations sorted out, but floor space for visitors who are too drunk to drive or need a corner by the litter box would be helpful
- Tickets: Some people will invariably need tickets. Got a hookup? A spare? A "guy"? Let us know.
- Ride Share/carpooling and/or Airport/Amtrack/Greyhound pickup. For those in the 'Ham, some carpooling would be awesome for people flying in.
- Other miscellaneous shit that I'm forgetting because I'm mentally spent. i.e., chime in with things that I've omitted.
So, please chime in below with ideas, suggestions, probabilities of attending, random gifts of panties and club drugs, a hearty "F' YOU", or whatever else you feel like contributing.
BTW: for the uninitiated, you can find us lurking on Twitter under various names. For instance, Stuck becomes "gothlaw". Also, I think we've just started using the hashtag as noted above. It seems to work, and it'll be easy to check when these "reply alls" start taking up way too many of the 140 characters.
Anyway, hope to see you all there. -E

I’m flying into Birmingham with my very best friend that Thursday night (assuming we don’t get stuck in Atlanta…again) and will exit the plane looking for cocktails. We’re unclear as to how we’re getting to Tuscaloosa for the ball game, but it looks like it might involve SITP, TWEsq, and some very, very bad reggae music.
Upon advice of most of y’all from around here we’re waiting until gameday to purchase tickets.

New place
Called Slice just opened up right next to moes in downtown B’ham. Across the street from Nana Funks. Very Very Very good pizza. Very nice patio. However I gotta say that chuys at the summit even though it is a chain; Has an amazing patio overlooking all of 280.

No, this is definitely true.
I don’t know about muggings but there are plenty of cars broken into there. It’s so tucked away that it is probably a haven for this kind of activity. It sucks that the bar/cafe is so cool.

Welll...
Parkside does have an awesome patio. That was probably my favorite.
There was also someplace with picnic tables and the delectable treats known as “cowboy nachos”, and then there was the place with the margaritas and the inside patio (the day it rained). I have no idea where they were, though…
Pick a better patio and I’m there. The October weather should be PERFECT.

so it’s easier for me to pick and choose when I want to go. The better the game is, the less I care about the weather. I’m definitely going to Arkansas and LSU this year no matter what, so I’m fine with watching Vandy on TV. You’d have to pay me to go to the Kent State game in this heat.

1990? Do you not even remember when you were in school? LOL
You said you started in ’94, right? Freshmen year is a pretty clear delineater for me. That game was in fall ’94. I stayed through the storm and then got tossed out for throwing a cup in the air when we scored the go-ahead TD.
It was the next week (or next home game at least) after the big win over UGa, where everyone in the entire student section had thrown cups in the air at the end. I guess the University decided to get tough the following week, even if there were only ~20 of us in the stands.

It was 1994. I can't remember his name
but there was a sports talk radio host in Atlanta who spoke about that game the following Monday and said the Bear had intervened. As I recall we had gotten behind 10-0, only to run off 21 unanswered after play resumed. That would be the same year of the devastating close loss to Florida in the SECCG, which my dad and granddad attended (they could only get two seats so the kid didn’t win out.) Wint to the SEC Experience in the Dome though, which was cool, then went home and watched on TV. Damn Chris Doering.

I spent more than enough gamedays in a wool uniform in the heat.
I value air conditioning, as well as the better view of a game that television broadcasts generally provide. Atmosphere in the stadium is nice, but I’ve been there and done that, and I’ll stick to the big games when possible. If I thought Vandy 2011 had any chance to rival Florida 2005 (the time I swear my ears themselves were clipping), my butt would be in a seat.

And
when he wasn’t peeing on children, he was begging from them.

Oops. My fault.
Here I fixed it…
Harold was wearing a nice expensive tuxedo and when he wasn’t peeing on children, he was begging from them.
Better?

Harold wouldn't be caught dead doing either.
Think more along the lines of Rex Harrison’s Dr. Dolittle, Sean Connery’s James Bond and Harrison Ford’s Hans Solo. Except drunk.

Well try to drive down from Nashville.
would be fun.
I'll be there
possibly with the pixie in tow, or maybe not… which means if not, I’ll have an extra ticket :)
So from what I've read...
You still need to sort out a tailgate spot, correct?
Talent can only get you so far. Give me a player who has less talent, but the heart of a champion and the will to succeed.
That is correct.
I know we will be at Egan’s at some point…beyond that, nothing is settled

I'll see what I can try to pull off...
But the Quad will be tough. When was the last time you came to a game? The tailgating has become massive with most prime spots booked at a substantial rate.
Also, while I don’t know if I can be there for the game I’ve got an idea for some tickets and other stuff, but I’ll have to work some magic to make it happen and would need some help from RBR. I might have to work this into some sort of advertising campaign/winner.

Was there in 09...
Got in and was able to park at Coleman.
