2 nights at a hotel on a GameDay weekend are probably close to a 1000 alone


Maybe for a Mercer weekend.

For the conference games, it’s 750-800 a night . Plus all the taxes and fees. $2,000 before you’ve set foot in the town. Insane.

Lol that's true. My mom is in an assisted living facility in Oxford. Hotels have gotten expensive over there just for a normal weekend.

I am going to the game in Columbia. I booked it with points really early. I noticed now they are charging 800 a night for it. It's just a basic Hyatt that normally goes for 150.

Yeah I was just thinking Mercer weekend. Multiply it 3-4 times for any mid-big size conference game.

Or I can spend $50 on food and drinks and watch at home. Catch all the other games. And have money left over to donate to the athletic department or collective.

Trust me the university and the city realize how ridiculous it is and to their credit they are both doing something to fix it. 20 years from not this town will double in size to where we’ve basically expanded to Sardis/Etta/Taylor etc. They have a plan
