Is anyone afraid of not being able to get a room for this weekend?

I doubt if all hotels in B'ham will be completely booked for the Tragic City Classic weekend. A lot of hotels in B'ham will certainly jack their rates like they do for any event with the hotels closest to the events jacking their rates the highest.

I looked at getting a room in Pelham a couple of weekends ago and setting up a visit with a special lady I haven't seen lately. There was a big country music concert at the Oak Mountain Amphitheater and all the hotels in Pelham had jacked their rates by $20 to $30 the night of the concert. So I decided to go to Atlanta and see another special lady.

What is going to be tragic is when Alabama A&M beats Auburn in a few weeks. Well Chizik is already fired on Dec 2 anyway if my sources are correct. $ugardaddy Petrino might be the Auburn coach next year.
