quote:Nashville - that city that is opened 52 weeks a year? I can do that any of the other 51 weeks out of the year. I would rather walk the few hundred feet up the hill to that world class rv in the not so world class rv park and fire up the Weber (got to travel light, you know), throw on a nice strip steak, get an ice cold beer out of the ice cold refrig in the outdoor kitchen and while the wife makes a world class salad, I watch the perfectly cooked steak. All of that for probably 1/4 the price of staying in Nashville. SEC baseball tourney is only one week out of the year. Again, I can go to Nashville any time I want.
In that you are just interested in the Baseball and don't care if it's in downtown of a world class city with a multitude of hotel, dining and entertainment options. Yes you are different.

Can't you go RV camping any other week, you know, in the actual woods? Most people would rather stay in a downtown setting and actually experience things. Watch some baseball and then go to dinner or the museum or go see the symphony or hit a honky Tonk. Or if you're into the outdoors, hit Centennial Park or Radnor Lake. You get the idea. Not just watching a game and then going back to the camper.

quote:Look, we get it. You love taking your RV to the tournament. That appeals to a limited number of folks from a limited geographic area (reasonable driving distance from Birmingham). For anyone not in an RV, a park in a downtown setting, with lots of hotels, restaurants, and other amusements within easy walking distance, is the preferred option. The only thing that the Big XII actually got right was having their baseball tournament in OKC--that park was perfectly located.
