Hotel plans ? Looking to stay at team hotel with me and 4 friends. 

Last year was the Hyatt Regency. I liked it and hope it's the same this year.

Embassy Suites is pretty nice, stayed there last year.  We just booked Hampton Inn Tutwiler which is downtown in walking distance to the pep rally.  Room is about $115 or so.  I believe we have 4 going in our group.

CAR POOL?

I'm considering the trip because I have to (I've never missed a bowl game)....but the first strike for me is that we are hosting my wife's family Christmas get-together the night of the 23rd.  If any additional strikes are needed, they would be timing and money.

So, just curious if anyone is interested in car pooling.

I made the roadtrip last year with my (then) 12 yr old son, but that was a little rough with just one driver.  Doubtful my boy can get out of his family Christmas obligations, so I'm looking at riding solo, which seems silly.  Thoughts?

My son and I are staying at the Redmont Hotel (since I'm a Hilton guy), which is just a few blocks from the pep rally and close to the Tutweiler (a Hampton).  Got a $134 rate there.  I'm debating whether I just go up Friday and then back Saturday after the game or come back Sunday.

I will certainly be up for a TBP get-together!

Not for me this year; 8 hours is a little much of a drive for just me, and even if I were to fly up at 7 AM and depart at 6 PM, $300 is a lot of money for a football game.

I will be driving over to Birmingham from Atlanta Friday night and back Saturday Afternoon. If anyone is flying in/out Atlanta I should have room for a few more. Looks like there are still decent flights on Southwest, Delta, and Spirit. $200-250 roundtrip.
