"Would you feel safe watching a game at Legion Field?"
'No' is winning...not good :( I think the idea of "structural damage," whether it's only on the upper deck or not, will scare off potential UAB visitors to football games. :(
Go here for the poll: <a href='http://www.al.com/news/' target='_blank'>http://www.al.com/news/</a>
Finebaum is already telling people not to go to LF and they are stupid to do so. Thanks A-hole....
Well, I dont think that should hurt attendance overall. Good thing it's coming out now, rather than the week of our first game. If they did that, it'd still be fresh in their minds, but as is it shouldnt keep away too many fans. And if it does, then they're stupid. If they're UAB fans, they dont have to go anywhere NEAR that upper deck unless we have the fortunate problem of running out of seats on the home side.
They need to FIRE the morons that are responsible for it's upkeep. The poll is probably being hijacked by a few Bama Bubba.
Remember that al.com is not Blazer friendly....... Thgere are two guys that monitor the Blazer forum and both are Bamers. I have talked to both of them.
If you are refering to firing the people at LF, their hands are tied with that place. Remember it was built in 1927 when there was no such thing as building codes back then. I was involved with it's last major renovation to some extent. If LF had to conform to current building codes, (certain aspects are "grandfathered in") it would not pass today with the exceptionof the east upper deck and press box and ramps etc. Those are ok....
