RBA Sponsored Chartered Bus to BBVA Compass Bowl Interest?

Post by SMUer »

I requested a quote from a number of bus charter companies and the first one came in: $100 would cover travel to Birmingham both ways. Would anyone on Ponyfans be interested in joining RBA on a bus-trip to the bowl game? We could leave Friday night (10:00PM) and arrive around 8-9:00AM Saturday Morning or leave early Friday morning (9:00AM) and stay overnight in Birmingham . In either case we'd likely leave immediately after the game (4:00PM) on Saturday to drive back to Dallas, arriving early Sunday morning (2:00AM). I'd like to keep trip costs down so students can go (and me), so avoiding the overnight expense would be ideal, but that also means Friday night's sleep would be in a bus seat. Please let me know A) if you have interest in going by bus and B) your Friday leave-time preference (9AM or 10PM) and whether either choice would affect your interest

Big buses come in flavors of 38-seats or 56-seats.
