Blog Streak - Day 4 Bama Stuff

I mentioned last night that it was like Christmas Eve. Well Christmas Day turned out unbelievable. Alabama signed another incredible incoming class, with one very highly ranked player still waiting to send in his Letter of Intent. This will easily be another Top 5 Class, perhaps a Top 2 or 3. We filled many areas of need and the futures so bright we'll have to wear shades.

Another great piece of news was the announcement of the Bryant Denny Expansion. Our capacity will increase from 92,138 to over 101,000. The South Endzone expansion will cost about $86 million dollars, but to the more than 12,000 people (about 36,000 tickets) on the Season Ticket waiting list, it's worth every penny. Pledges have already been received for 25 of the proposed 36 Skyboxes at a reported cost of $500,000. There will also be 1,700 Club Level seats and over 8,000 in the new upper deck. The expansion will begin almost immediately and be ready for the begin of the 2010 season.




It's our little slice of heaven, Bryant Denny Stadium.
