Lots of new features on the tape exchange.
For those who do not know, we have established a group of people who provide copies of old Alabama games to anyone who asks. In exchange, we ask either for a copy of a game we do not have or that you cover our expenses.
To order games, simply e-mail me
Simon@Tidefans.com
Or the people indicated in the appropriate post.
FOOTBALL GAMES
We have nearly 300 football games – mostly the original TV broadcasts although older games are usually highlight shows or “coach tapes” – silent films with only the plays.
The most popular game with more than 700 orders is the Auburn game from last year. Also included in the top 10 are
1992/93 Sugar Bowl against Miami
1978/79 Sugar Bowl against Penn State
1985 Iron Bowl
1999 Florida game in “The Swamp”
among others.
New additions include the 1976 Liberty Bowl against UCLA!!!! as well as all of the games from the 2001 season.

BASKETBALL GAMES
One of the new additions is a basketball list – four people with collections ranging from a few to 30+ games. We REALLY need people with collections on their own to help out and increase our list. Even if you have only one game that we don’t – join up!

BEAR BRYANT SHOWS
Almost last but certainly not least, we have generated a short list of old Bear Bryant Shows that are available. Some of these are not in great shape, given the age but all the ones offered are “watchable”

NASTY PEOPLE
Finally, some people continue to “rip off” those of us who send them tapes. In a week or so there will be an updated list of these so-called Bama fans! This note is to give them one more chance to contact me!
