That is a good point. Count me among those complaining about how crappy the stadium was. It is wonderful to attend a game in a place that has a sense of history but the concessions (it felt like there was some sort of concession worker strike and they had to hire 20 people off the street to set something up) and bathrooms left much to be desired and like was said earlier, install some handrails for heaven sake.
Birmingham is a much nicer city than my first impression gave me (the stadium and airport are in bad areas unfortunately). Of course, if visiting fans came to USF, they may say the same about our surrounding neighborhood. Areas like Homewood and Vulcan Park are really nice!
I also want to add that the people in Birmingham were incredible friendly and nice and thanks so much for your advice for visitors
