Try these: The stadium is in a pretty bad part of town, so there isn't any hotels near the stadium, but these will be just fine.

these are suggested by the GMAC folks and are nice and not too expensive

Excellent!

I see that many hotels are already sold out for some of those dates. Keeping my fingers crossed that we get the bid soon so I can book!

Thanks for the help! Hope you don't mind a few more questions once this all becomes official!

Thanks BAMA

How about some other suggestions for things to do, places to go, Food, Drink, etc, etc.

It's great for you to be our 'Local' contact guy

Thanks for the support.

Mobile:

How about the Extended Stay, which is off exit 5A of I-65? Looks like it's just a few miles from the stadium and would be a great value.

Hey, no problem y'all. Ask me anything y'all want. Not sure about the extended stay. There are a ton of hotels off I-65, and they are all close to the stadium. The reasons to stay downtown is the MARDI GRAS Parade Tuesday night... which is GREAT for visitors and locals, the pep-rally on the river, it being close to the bars, some really nice downtown parks/cathedrals/French style buildings and restaurants. Let me give it some more thought tonight and I'll send a very complete "Bowling Green Guide to Mobile" and we can make it a permanent thread... Assuming y'all get the invite, which I think is going to happen. Talk to y'all later. -Tom
