Not a flame, just wondering. Bama vacated wins all of 05, 06 and half of 07.
What was the story exactly, I remember the textbooks but why did it span such a long period of time? Was it one person specifically?
TIA

If I attended a vacated game, did I attend a game?

The NCAA's practice of vacating wins is stupid, but that's about par for the course when the NCAA is handling things.

Bama players traded books for hookers and blow.

The textbook 5 was Roy Upchurch, Antione Caldwell, Marlon Davis, Glen Coffee and Marquis Johnson

It was a ton of players, a guy I knew played there at the time and it was basically a way of funneling the players cash. Basically just give them a bunch of books and buy them back at full price.

The NCAA noted approximately 200 players across multiple sports that had received extra materials (Most such as "suggested" reading materials or workbooks which are not covered by the scholarship).
It further identified 21 "willful offenders" who knowingly took advantage of the bookstore's lack of oversight (with the potential for profit, although that was never documented). Of those, seven were football players. The severity of the punishment, relative to the light nature of the infractions, was based on the fact that the first players involved acted only three years after the 2002 probation.

Alabama didn't have to worry about vacating any wins against LSU in 05, 06, or 07.
