Attention Media WizardsToday, along Interstate 20 just east of Shreveport I spotted an east bound 18 wheeler with signage on the trailer that read: "UAB Blazers" and below "uabblazers.com". My first thought was that this was a rather economical way to transport the team and/or band to and from the UTEP game. On second thought, I became aware that this vehicle probably couldn't handle the tubas and drums plus the band, so maybe just the team ? Just kidding, but I am curious as to the purpose of this 18 wheeler. Was it for media (TV/cable/radio) and if so, it sure seemed like a large truck for such an enterprise. I looked up the uabblazers.com site and the site specifically referenced the fact that this site is not endorsed by the school or the team, but rather is a site controlled by a UAB alum. My question is both (1) what in the world would such a vehicle transport and for what purpose and (2) if this is a private media outlet of some type wouldn't this be a huge economic drain ? Any thoughts?
Re: Attention Media WizardsSMU has a similar trailer. You have no idea how much cr@p the team travels with until you have seen it for yourself.
website: http://www.atlantamafia.com/CUSA_Transports.htm At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Re: Attention Media WizardsThanks Dooby, I guess I was a little miffed that if the school is the owner or lessee of the 18 wheeler, why they would allow a non-school related website to advertise. I guess just advertising dollars eh ?
Re: Attention Media Wizardswell, on the website I linked to, the picture says "uabsports.com"; not "uabblazers.com". Of course, the picture is a year old.

Re: Attention Media WizardsNope, the signage on the 18 wheeler was definitely "uabblazers.com", so who knows? Another mystery of life.
Re: Attention Media WizardsJust about every D-I school has such a trailer.
Re: Attention Media WizardsWhen I lived on i-10 I pulled alongside all the UF trucks on their way to the Fiesta bowl in Arizona a few years back. Did the gator chomp. They were pumped to see a texas fan. (Im not really a fan, just wanted to do the gator chomp)
