Great family Great family experience!! No alcohol sold big plus
Weather was great and it was fun. There were no problems regarding our tickets and we enjoyed
This years tournament was great!! The Hoover met always does a great job in hosting. Everything was very organized and the SEC FANFEST for the kids was AWSOME!!! A huge THANK YOU to everyone that worked so hard to make this experience so great for me and my family!!
The event itself is always a delight. The venue is clean and beautiful. The parking and access to things for the kids to do is wonderful. We were shocked that the SEC tournament didn't have alcohol sales without a $50 buy-in to some special area.
The only complaint I have is cost of concessions. It was rediculous
Bham is a good central location. Stadium is old, but in ok shape. Love tbe newer amenities popping up nearby - brewery, restaurants etc. Concessions in the stadium were really poor. The lines were 100 deep in some places. There wasn’t nearly enough vendors. They really need to revamp the concessions as well as the main portal running through the stadium. I would really really put an emphasis on that going forward. Please know these comments are not to be critical but are coming from someone who wants to keep the tourney in Bham for years to come!!
Even though my team did not make the tournament this year, my wife and I attended ten of the seventeen games. I’ve attended at least one game every year starting in 1998 (26 consecutive) and the experience continues to get better! Lord willing, we hope to be back to Hoover next May. Please keep it there. The city does a tremendous job in accommodating us fans in a most hospitable way. I like the twelve team format and with the level of play in the conference, any team seeded 1-12 that gets hot at the right time can win the tournament. The tickets and concessions are reasonably priced for the common man and if you keep them that way the fan base will continue to grow.
The venue and city is absolutely perfect for the SEC baseball tournament. I loved having the Fan Fest for my children. The hospitality offerings are an amazing feature to have to enjoy the games in style. I appreciated the additional food offerings this year as well. Overall I look forward to this event every year, and it is no surprise that the attendance record was set this year again!
Perfect day for baseball. Took the grands and me and Mimi to our first sec tournament. Great seats 2 great games. Didn’t know who was playing when tickets were purchased. Turned out to be Ala/Aub. Kids thought that was great. Both can’t wait till next year.
This was a well run tournament. The stadium was clean, staff was friendly, and the crowd was treated with respect. Will come back next year for sure!!
