Say hi to Scam Bankman Fraud while you are there. Bring him a proper vegan meal as it seems he can't get one in his jail cell.
Sorry for that. I hope our Blazers ignite the bowl season with a passionate performance to send off one of the most successful classes in Blazer history. Give BV a winning record as a head coach and give the Blazer faithful a reason for continued optimism as we all move forward to a new conference and a new era.
Why play that game on a midday weekday as the bowl season kickoff???
Just seems odd, and poor timing, the Bahamas Bowl has to be a logistical nightmare for these teams making sure everyone has passports and getting everyone, including families, there to enjoy the game. It’s an interesting concept, and I enjoy the Bahamas, not so much Nassau, but the rest of it is quiet and peaceful beauty.
Hopefully there is a good crowd and gives us a good game to watch.

It sure helped me out, and many Blazers that traveled in 2017. My cruise ship docks at 10 am, game at 11:30, and ship leaves at 6. That’s the only way I was able to make this trip.

Which cruise were you able to get that worked? I had a hard time finding one that aligned with the dates and gametime.

Carnival Freedom out of Port Canaveral. I may have gotten the last room on the ship, because I advertised it to other Blazer fans and nobody was able to find availability within 5 minutes of my post. I don’t remember it giving me an option to pick which room, like on a different cruise I booked. There was also the Disney Dream ship out of Miami that was about 3 times the cost. Those were the only two I could find that docked that day.
I honestly expect a UAB dominate effort here. They want to close this out strong for BV. I hope we get to send BV out with a victory. Although i disagreed with alot of calls/management, he was the glue for this team this year. He is a really good man, and I will always be thankful for his role at UAB.
