If you kept reading you would see where I mentioned the Classic.

One game, that is literally the Super Bowl of Historically Black Colleges and Universities is a little different than an entire seasons worth of home games.

Did you know that people reserve hotel rooms for the MCC a year in advance? 2 years ago my buddy tried to plan a bachelor party and didn't realize the Classic was the same weekend. We tried to rent out a suite and were told by every hotel downtown were told they had all been booked for months. We couldn't find a decent room anywhere in Birmingham.

Not to mention the crowd at the Magic City Classic is a different demographic than UAB students and is a little more at home and welcome by the residents of the area surrounding Legin Field.

Comparing that one single game to UABs season is apples to oranges. Or as you said "stupid fricking post is stupid fricking post"
