Took my girls to their first game this year and even though there was a rain delay there was so much fun and entertainment to keep the kids busy throughout the delay. Not to mention all the amazing giveaway nights they do for adults and kids. Prices on food and drinks are reasonable and quality of the food is exceptional for a minor league stadium. This stadium is located in the heart of downtown Montgomery and has easy accessible parking options and right off the entertainment district too with lots of food options, live music and more to take in after the game. Very family friendly and will take my kids again !

The Montgomery Bowl was unique to the 2020-21 college football season because of the ongoing…read moreCOVID-19 pandemic. The bowl is owned and operated by ESPN Events. Of the 13 bowl games put on by ESPN Events this past season, the Montgomery Bowl was the only addition. It was completely new and unique. It effectively replaced the cancelled Fenway Bowl, which was planned to debut in 2020, pitting a team from the ACC against a team from the American Athletic Conference at Fenway Park in Boston. Instead, what college football fans got was a matchup between a team from Conference USA versus a team from the American at the old Cramton Bowl in Montgomery, Alabama. Better than nothing. This was actually one of two bowl games held at Cramton Bowl in 2020. The Camellia Bowl, which has been held at Cramton Bowl since 2014, was played on Christmas Day 2020 (Buffalo 17, Marshall 10). The Montgomery Bowl was held two days prior on December 23, 2020. Kickoff was at 6:00 PM local time and the game was televised nationally on ESPN. Memphis from the American (8-3, 5-3) topped Florida Atlantic (5-4, 4-2) from C-USA, 25-10. Due to COVID-19, attendance at both the Montgomery and Camellia Bowls was reduced to under 3,000 fans per event in the 25,000-seat Cramton Bowl. The official attendance for the Montgomery Bowl was 2,979. Owned by the City of Montgomery, Cramton Bowl first opened in 1922 as a baseball stadium, but is mainly used for college football now. Johnny Williams, Executive Director of the Camellia Bowl, also served as Executive Director of the Montgomery Bowl. Despite an unusual season, Montgomery Mayor Steven Reed and Montgomery County Commission Chairman Elton Dean, along with Williams, were probably glad to have the opportunity to host a second FBS postseason game in the state capital. Memphis QB and 2020 William Campbell Trophy winner Brady White was named MVP of the Montgomery Bowl after passing for 284 yards and three touchdowns. As a nationally-ranked top-10 quarterback coming out of Santa Clarita's Hart High School in 2015, White has been a member of teams (Arizona State, Memphis, and Team Kai in the 2021 Hula Bowl) that have appeared in *six* different bowl games every year from 2016 through 2021 (if you count the Hula Bowl, an all-star game, as a bowl game). The latter was broadcast nationally on CBS Sports Network.

The Riverfront Bar has a lot of potential with its views, but if you're planning to enjoy a relaxing evening, be sure to bring some bug spray and money.

The absolute one thing I wanted to do when I found out I was going to be in the Montgomery region…read morewas to come to this museum. My heart broke when I was online looking at the surrounding areas and saw that this was (at that time) temporarily closed. Due to updating of exhibits with new technology. I was a bit down because of this because I have been obsessed with Rosa Parks since high school. I was just going to let it slide until I did a bit more researching while in the city. I went to their website and noticed that they were reopening on MLK Day...the day I was to leave to head back home. I started to hatch a plan to allow me to visit, I couldn't pass it up. With them opening up on MLK Day they were doing a special where you got half off admissions. Not that bad of a deal. There are two portions to this museum, the main exhibit and a children's portion of it. Both cost $7 and when I found out I was going to pay just $7 for both that day, I thought why not. But I will touch on this a bit later. DISCLAIMER: Don't be like me and take pictures, it is not allowed. Let me explain. When I came here I was in a rush, when I came inside I was asked if I was here for the museum or if I was here to use the restroom. They were allowing people gathering for the MLK Day parade outside use the restroom. I said that I was here for the museum. The guy working the host stand hurried me into the museum as a group just went in. Rushing me in since the start of the museum was a video presentation. With that, he did the honor system with me (yet again), told me to pay and opened the door and let me inside. With all the hurry of getting inside, I wasn't given time to read anything of the rules or be given a rundown or the rules. More on this a bit later in the review. Once you enter you are greeted by a replica of the Montgomery City Bus that Rosa Parks stood her ground on. The bus is equipped with video screens that fill in for the windows. This portion of the museum is totally immersive, as you watch the interaction taking place on the bus, hearing the overhead voice to fill in the gaps, watching the actors portraying the events, lights guiding your eyes to parts in the room to keep you in the moment (portions outside of the bus). Also, you will notice that you are on what is supposed to be a street. The street that this historic event takes place, once you figure this out you will notice you are technically standing in front of the theater, near a payphone. But you are immersed into it all that you don't realize it until the lights come up and guide you to the rest of the museum. Once out of this you then go through each and every moment that followed Ms. Parks action. Including MLK's entrance into the movement, the use of personal cars to help people get to work when boycotting the bus (and the targeting of the those given rides), The eventual end of the boycott, the continued progression of the Civil Rights Movement, and so on. All the while educating you. I wish I could have met Ms. Parks in person, this museum brought more information to light for me about her. This should be called a memorial on top of a museum and library. To touch base on the admission. The other portion of this is a children's based interaction and could be skipped by adults in you do not want to take this in. It is an interactive 'ride.' You enter the 'bus' and are driven through history. It is made to be an educational tool to teach children about segregation. The bus is meant to be a time machine that mashes up history a bit by having historical figures 'meet' and educate those on the ride. The bus does move and vibrate and there are flashing lights, it is interesting to experience, but not a must.
