Baseball tourney to Gwinnett
HQ to downtown Atlanta near the CFB HOF
Basketball tourney to MB Stadium every year
Women's tourney to Phillips every year

Billy Payne to Commissioner

The hostile Kirby takeover away from the REC would be complete.

Really don't care about these 2 events and Nashville does a good job with the Men's tourney.

I do like the rest of your list though

ATL media is pissed.

They used to run up the expense accounts to cover it in bham but now they have to cover it with no hotels/bartabs/parties.

What? Exactly how many people do you think come to this? Those cities each handle 70-120k people every football Saturday.

Wasn't aware games were 4 day events

You ever been to the Wyndam in Birmingham seen the set up for SEC media days?

It's media days. How many people travel to media days? I personally know of none. What am I missing?

No, I haven't but I'm not sure what the amount of days has to do with anything.

What's the number of people coming in? 20k including media, workers etc? Thats probably vastly overstating it.

Any SEC college town could easily handle media days.

None of you should ever come through Alabama. It's a shithole. I especially discourage you from traveling on I65 towards the beach.
