UAB Athletics Website Check... Attack of the Quesalupa,
I just tried to look at the men's basketball schedule online and I can't get to it because there is a Taco Bell Quesalupa ad in the way. In fact, it pretty much prevents you from going to anything that is part of the sub menu dropdowns - like buy tickets.

I checked both Chrome and Firefox. I am curious if this happens for everyone.

Try it and see.

It's good for me. I checked with both Chrome and Firefox.

Do you have Adblock+ add-on installed on your browser?

Chrome with ad block = no tacos.

No, but I don't normally have any issues with ads preventing a page from functioning. I just close them or ignore them and it's fine.

Weird... that's good though that this is isolated and people are not blocked from getting tickets or selecting the donation links.

i was just complaining about the same thing...took me a while to figure out that if you scroll down the page, the add rolls up out of the screen, but the main screen options are still there

al.com sometimes does that BS. You have to minimize the zoom percentage just to be able to close the ads & see the page.
