| FTBL Visiting Bryant Denny during Game Day...

[Crimson&WhiteGecko]

I am splurging & taking my parents & brother to the 'Bama/LSU game in November, so I thought I'd RE-insert this topic to 'Our Fansights'. So what are your favorite seats, preferred gate to enter, Walk of Champions tips/tricks, parking preferences.

Any insight is welcome.

Thanks!

Let me ask some more specific topics:

What's your preferred parking spot? Why? How much is it?

Central High School. $20. Easy walk to campus and stadium.

Is it easy to access coming from Lake Lurleen on 359? Anything blocked off to note?

359/Lurleen Wallace Blvd to East on 15th street
I usually come in from Cottondale so it’s west on 15th street past McFarland Blvd.

If you show up late and spaces are full, there are additional spaces across 15th street near Hardin‘s Bakery run by the Boy Scouts - also $20 (but Central High has more spaces)

I assume you head back East on 15th Street when you leave. Do you have any idea if 15th West is open to go back to 359?

You have to sit in the end zone. NO better way to watch football...especially with the way this team is starting to play.

Any particular section you'd recommend to see things that you're referring too?

My seats were always in the North End Zone, upper deck in the 1st 2 rows. Like @TerryP said, best seats in the house. The end zone view allows you to see the plays as they develop.

It is.

 

[SnakeDoc]

One tip: If you watch the team arrive at the Walk of Champions, please enter the security perimeter at the point nearest your actual gate and not those closest to the Walk of Champions. It will be much quicker.

For parking, I'd just go to UAGameday.com and buy a parking pass ($356). That way, you are guaranteed a spot and it's in an actual parking lot. Plus, the Crimson Ride picks up and drops off at all of those lots and then picks up and drops off at The Quad, so very minimal walking.

It’s only a few blocks and 359 is a major route to 59/20 - so yes, everything is open.

For parking, I'd just go to UAGameday.com and buy a parking pass ($35). That way, you are guaranteed a spot and it's in an actual parking lot. Plus, the Crimson Ride picks up and drops off at all of those lots and then picks up and drops off at The Quad, so very minimal walking.

That was supposed to say $35, NOT $356!!!

LOL. I don't know why I didn't catch that at the time.

I prefer the upper deck from the 30...you can see the entire field much better and you can still watch the plays develop.

I'll be in the Upper level for the first time, in section G. I went to the upper level for the second half of A-Day to get out of the sun & thoroughly enjoyed the view & breeze up there. So I thought, I'd try it for a game. Hopefully, it won't be too chilly for the Nov 4th LSU game.
