No doubt, and I'm guessing CFB wanted to recreate coordinated ants through a magnifier experience for CFB fans.

I've never been to a Nascar race, have no idea what the crowd sounds like at these things. 

All you hear is the cars really, especially when they come by.

When there is a building between yourself and the football field, then you probably have a bad seat.

Butch will be right at home at this gimmick crap fest.

Bristol already sent out a tweet that Binoculars are allowed but telescopes are not

They should have had the game the same weekend as the race. Maybe just have both at the exact same time.


Before this game was even announced, I had a dream that the Iron Bowl was played in the infield at Talladega while the race was going.

It was equal parts terrifying and amazing.

How high up are the seats along the catch fence in the turns? Because if they aren't fairly elevated, I would think those tents/temporary structures are going to be in the line-of-sight.

The buildings on either end of the field will be the locker rooms so they'll enter from the end zones I guess.

Have you ever gotten drunk and sat at the end of a runway when jets are taking off? Car engines are like that, only louder.

This would make a great MasterCard commercial

Ticket for the game $100, Zeiss Binoculars $1000, still not able to see shite... priceless.

I measured it on google earth and you would be approximately 100 yards from the back of the end zone setting in the front row. No thanks!

Hopefully the fences are high enough to protect fans from getting hit with the occasional errant Josh Dobbs pass. (South Alabama, I know.)

Yu are watching the guy drive, not driving yourself. Are you in the huddle at Vols games!

How old are you?

Getting drunk at inappropriate places is a rite of passage in America and protected by the Constitution and such. I bet you have never woken up in a tree, nekkid as the day you were born, smelling like sex, and no idea how you got there…..

Yet drinking wine through your arse is just another day in Knoxville?

The track is big compared to a football field/college stadium. It is small compared to a lot of the other tracks on the circuit. It would take nearly 5 laps around Bristol to equal one trip around Talladega.
