RE: Blazer Football Road Games 2013
Depending on work schedule - Troy is a good possibility, Vandy & maybe MTSU, can't say about any others yet since we don't even know who's in/out of the conference yet

Troy & Vandy are possibilities.

Yeah hopefully ticket prices won't be bad through UAB's site
I've never been to a road conference game. Georgia and SCar are my only road trips so far; I had a blast both times even though we lost.
There's just a special feeling about going on the road, especially being the underdog. Was that the year we played Georgia a good game? I remember listening to it on the radio lol

I don't recall having very many complaints from BlazerTalkers about treatment at any of our road games by most of the "home town" fans. How much of that has been due to a lack of fear that we will upset their apple cart can be argued. Maybe we will find out as our team gets better than in the past few years. Even at LSU we will be around students who were only in kindergarten or primary grades when we won in 2000.
The cost of "away" tix are the regular prices for that school's home games (Ohio St price was $70 each). I don't think UAB makes any money by selling these road game tix, they just sell from their allotment sent to us by the school. I hope we will someday have to ask for "seconds" due to demand on our end.

RE: Blazer Football Road Games 2013
My Best and Worst UAB road game of all time was at Mississippi State. UAB won the game and the transmission on my Dodge Intrepid went out before We could make it back to Tuscaloser.
Will make @Troy and @Vandy for sure.

I've made trips to Troy and the Grove. Hoping I'm able to attend the Vanderbilt game and possibly one of the East coast games.

I'll be at all of them. The farthest I've gone before without being a part of the band was Gainsville in 2011, and it. was. AWESOME.
