re: So, who's going to Birmingham?

I worked in the B'ham area about 32-33 yrs ago for short time and hated it....I mean hated it. Unemployment was bad and most were ok with drawing unemployment checks...which is a foreign concept to me.

Was in the area when Bama football was not good. I also was there when Boston College came to town with Doug Flutie and he of course did his usual game changing heroics and beat Bama. Made a lot of $$ off Boston College in Las Vegas....betting with them and against them.

I'd pack heat to go the game...ok....j/k. Its a sewer hole though.
