Thank you so much for this video. I'm from california and I will be attendind the college in the fall of 09, and I've never actually been to Alabama outside of the airport, so videos like these are my only connection with the state and school. So thank you very very much. Great advice :). I don't think I've ever studied either.

@jessicaaxo7 I live in Tuscaloosa, and you are truly right about that. I'm about to go to Atlanta to attend Georgia State in Spring 2012.

@jessicaaxo7 I feel you. I live in Auburn and I couldn't agree with you more

@curtisjuice Drink plenty of water. Heat in the South v. west coast is completely different. South (humidy) v. West Coast (dry heat). One man described a day in South around summer like walking in a sauna and breathing through a hot towel. For example, today is expected to be 102 in just temp (and humidy factor pushing up to 112+). Also, unless your rich or some sort of an athlete your chances of meeting a girl at Alabama are slim 2 none. UA girls want to marry rich guys or nfl players.

I'm from Alabama and really hope I don't get stuck going here or anywhere in-state. The people around here are so ignorant & close-minded.

Used to be a bar in TTown called "The Library". Kinda funny because alot of guys and girls would tell his or her parents when parents called they are at the library at 10 pm, but actually were at a bar called the library. Always funny when parents find out library is both gorgas and formly a bar. Few years ago bar was bought out ane re-named "the bear trap" that is now sadly a greek bar (frat/soroity bar filled with rich kids). The library bar was anti-greek that stayed open LATE.
