I know many of you will laugh and think this is silly, but the strip got so bad that it was closed shortly after midnight Saturday. If you were there you saw the SWAT team in the middle of University Blvd. With Alabama's open carry law there is nothing the police can do about all the folks carrying guns. The problem was not Al or Ga fans, and it wasn't students. There are not enough police officers to control this craziness. I live on the East side of town, and I would not have gotten a police response Saturday night. I'm afraid this has become an issue even when there is not a game here. Please understand that should you go out there be VERY careful. It would be much safer to stay away. The last time I posted this people made fun and then shortly we had a murder. Use your head and be safe. Better yet stay away .
