Did the team show up?

I'll go out on a limb and speculate that Bud Light sales were strong.

Good night. Lots of UAB gear. Not a lot of other gear. Coach Clark spoke for a minute or two. The team made a brief appearance but not on the stage. A good time was had by all (or at least most.)

Some twitter video at post #4

it was a first class event. very impressed with the execution.

Ingram allowing a ton of tickets to go to non-UAB fans made the pre-concert event lame.

Still a good crowd & concert by Sam.

They should have had some cheerleaders on the stage to lead the crowd.

The ticket situation was all ingram. It could have and should have been handled better and more efficiently. It did lead to some awkward moments. I don't think they got the reaction they wanted due to too many fans of other programs that are not coming today. Turned out well but it could have been handled better out of the gate. Still a great event and be sure everyone thank the sponsors.

It was well organized and WELL ATTENDED. My biggest complaint was there were too few food vendors, not enough ATM's (glad I took cash). Otherwise,, a great time. Stood in line thinking I was at a burger truck ( think it was named Chef Burgers or the like) and found when I got closer that it had some fairly exotic food choices, no burgers in sight. Id guess it took 30 minutes to get food and that line was the shortest I found, after trying 2 other times during the early stages of the concert to get chow.

We Chick-fil-a'd before the concert & I took cash with me. Didn't need it though. Line was too long for me on souvenirs & I heard it was a tad more than I was willing to pay.

The crowd was great for the most part. No excessive Alabama presence.

Lot's of kids & others tried to sneak through the crowd the whole night trying to move up.

The lady I was behind heavily shoved a drunk younger woman who was trying to do this.
