SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Beginning Saturday, Sept. 24, the Million Dollar Band will occupy different seats in the student section for the remainder of the Crimson Tide’s home football games in Bryant-Denny Stadium. The band’s new location will be in the curve of the south end zone in Section BB, rows 1-39. The band sat in this section in years past.

Students who are not members of the band may now sit in the band’s previous location, Section DD, rows 25-61.

This shift in seating means that students in the general student section will have access to better seats and that fans throughout the stadium will be better able to hear the band throughout the game.

The number of seats in the student section remains the same. Student Organization Seating is not impacted. Students will follow the same procedures to enter the stadium. All other guidelines remain the same.
