This is my 5th visit or so but never stayed in Birmingham for game.

Any good spots west of stadium to park if going back to Birmingham or is the high school still a good spot?

Will traffic be gridlock after game to BHam on interstate or are there any backroad routes that are better?

There's heavy traffic, but I haven't seen gridlock on interstate towards B'ham after a game. But I've also exited the stadium the second the game ends. Don't wait around regardless of the outcome.

Yes, but not awful. There's construction on 20/59 east of Tuscaloosa right now that's a little brutal.

Oh, and perhaps this is subjective, but when you get to Bham, I feel like 459 has way more traffic than just staying on 20 into downtown.

The high school is the best bet.

Central High School parking guests may enter the parking lot from either 15th or 17th Streets. Parking fees are $175 for RVs and $20 for other vehicles. Tickets will also be presented for placement in vehicle windows.

Oh it will be nuts after this game. I would go Hwy 11

Go North to Jack Warner Post game traffic map

Then follow it and get on Holt Peterson to Hwy 216 (Old Birmingham Hwy) which eventually crosses the interstate wayyyyyyyyyy east of Tuscaloosa.

Study the map
