Tuscaloosa - used to love Gallette's but its been a while since I've been to t-town so it may not be there still. So much construction on all these campuses now. Been lit up like a Christmas tree on Yellowhammer Slammers in there a few times. Always gotta hit me some Dreamland ribs while I'm there too.
Tuscaloosa is a rip off most places. I remember friday night and after the game saturday we would walk from bar to bar on the strip and almost every one told us their cover was $40-60 and no free drinks. We laughed in their face. I thought paying $10 after a game to go to Bogie's or Fred's was bad. I'll never underappreciate that again. Next week we hit both for $10 a piece and free drinks at both. God bless LSU.

If your college bars can charge a cover just to come in and drink, at any time, you don't have enough college bars.
A cover on Dickson Street means:
1) a good band is playing
2) It's NYE (and only then, it applies at a small minority of places)
That's pretty much it, but then again we have 30-something bars within a few blocks, and half that many restaurants with bars in the same area. Parking costs $5.00 though.

quote:I would never pay that (and thats why everybody gets a wristband before games so you dont pay that), but thats quite an apples to oranges comparison. Most people drive to Bogies and Freds whereas youre paying for the convenience of Gallettes - it being like 12 feet from the stadium. By the time you get to Tigerland in BR gameday traffic, its almost time to turn the Saints game on.
