PapaJohns.com Bowl

The PapaJohns.com Bowl (formerly known as the Birmingham Bowl) is a post-season NCAA-sanctioned Division I-A college football bowl game approved in April 2006 and played annually at the 71,594-seat Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama (That's UAB's field)

Why oh why oh why does Papa John's want to be known as PapaJohns.com? TFMJ thinks they're trying to draw attention to the fact that PapaJohns.com is a big deal; people already know about Papa Johns, now they need to know about the 'valuable' web site. Can you believe they have locations all over the world? Yikes.

The bowl has a four-year agreement with Conference-USA to match a representative of that conference against an opponent from the Big East Conference.

The PapaJohns.com Bowl is December 22nd at 12pm. Buy Tickets here.

UAB loves Dreamland BBQ?

I was on the UAB - University of Alabama at Birmingham - site when I noticed a big ad for Dreamland BBQ. The original Dreamland Café is located about two miles from the intersection of Hwy 82 and Interstate 59 just south of Tuscaloosa in an area known as Jerusalem Heights. Now there are Dreamland BBQ's all over Alabama (and Georgia).

Let's discuss. Who's been to Dreamland? How far is it from Legion Field? Is there an outpost at Legion Field?
