Went to a Barron's game at Regions last night. I was real impressed with the park, really nice. They had UAB baseball hats at the Barron's store. I bought one. They told me they had just put them out that day.

I will make it a point to purchase one next time I go.

Saw that. I had already bought that hat at Snoozy's.

Pics?

They had both the solid green hat and the green & white hat. They had the script B on them

I didn't think to take one of all the UAB hats.

Does anyone think that this was part of an agreement with the city?

No, I think the Barron's saw a marketing opportunity

That is funny in itself. (Not the marketing opportunity)

Barons, not Barrons.

How many people buy the hats thinking they are green Barons hats?

Probably as many UAB fans think they are buying Blazer hats.

LOL, too little sleep last night to catch the typo.

We're they selling caps from other schools as well?

nope just Barons and UAB. Well I think there was a B B B hat (Birmingham Black Barons).

Thats is probably a prelude to some of our games being there this season. I'm pumped about that. On a side note TJ Maxx of all places had some UAB shirts in Cullman.

Finis probably doesn't shop at TJ Maxx.

Probably not, but PB Jr. is definitely a Maxxinista.

I was out there Sat night as well. It's a great place to be at, not a bad view in the joint, great family friendly atmosphere. Next time I go, I'll head over to the store as well as it's about the only thing I didn't go to when I walked around
