Nah my job doesn't depend on where the tourney is located, I just like the location.

Birmingham would probably have everybody park/setup their tailgates at Legion Field and run a shuttle service over to Regions Field every 4 or so hours.
That sounds abysmal.

Leave it in Hoover. If it ain't broke, don't fix it

Downtown Bham sucks balls. Hoover is the perfect venue for the event.

Well, since the SEC league office is in B.ham, as is the League Director of Official & the League Director of Scheduling & a good 200 other bama alum employees, let's put it to a SEC league office vote ...(sarcasm)

They should rotate it like they do with the SEC Tournament in basketball.

Hoover, Coolray Field, and one or two other minor league parks.

Honestly as a Bama fan, I wouldnt be opposed to it rotating. Hoover has been a great venue though.

Yes, move it downtown so everyone can get raped and mugged.

Hoover. For the Memphis crowd, while the downtown is more vibrant, crime and especially panhandling there far worse than downtown Bham. I've rarely been to Memphis when my car was not broken into.

I've never been to Birmingham. After reading this thread, I'm not sure I want to. Looking forward to the conference tourney! I just hope my Ags aren't one and done.

Only 55 days to opening day!
