That's probably low on the priority list 3 days after such a devastating event.

I talked to a couple people in the Athletic Department at the game today, and the word is that on Monday, LSU officials will make a call to Alabama and come up with a decision.


ETA: The decision might not come on Monday, but we will inquire about it on Monday.

Did it cost you anything to talk to them? I have been calling the past week to discuss how they are messing with my parking pass. Seems like I need 5k for them to listen to my request and 50k for them to consider honoring their word. Oh and btw, for a TAF donation we can move you to the front of the line to air your request

I think it might end up being moved to Birmingham. This weekends softball series was canceled altogether. I'm not sure how much better things would even be in another week.

I learned a long time ago that when you walk into the Athletic Offices or the ticket office you will get further if you are holding up your Visa card in front of you. They will also honor a pack of hundreds IF they are still banded. Hope this helps.

No, not planning on going, I would just hate to see them lose this series. I remember how bad we wanted football after Katrina. A little difference I know, but for the die hards, for the ones who have been cleaning up, with postponed finals, graduating seniors with their schooling on hold, etc -they could use a mental break.

Yeah, mom told me that she would almost feel disrespectful for vacationing and occupying a hotel room that someone else is going to need much more than them. Very sad for our bretheren in Loosa.

I don't think there is any way Bama can host it in Tuscaloosa. The roads are still closed and probably will be for a while. Also I've heard there are no hotel rooms at all here right now. At this point it would be 100% better for them to move it to Birmingham. And honestly yall probably don't want to be here.. It's truly depressing to see all of the damage. I know yall had the same feelings after Katrina

This is the way I see it too. I hear that LSU officials are going to offer to play here and the ticket proceeds will go to the relief fund. The ADs are going to talk Monday.

That was my thinking myself. Wouldn't that be a great idea.

The people I talked to thought that if we didn't play in Tuscaloosa, we'd probably play here. I guess we'll find out Monday.

The people I talked to said they thought it would be at the Hoover Met./Regions Park, if of course it wasnt in T-town.

The minor league team is not in the Hoover Met next weekend so it is available I guess. I have no idea. I guess we'll find out Monday.
