As promised, we’ve started a list of things for folks visiting during this year’s PapaJohns.com Bowl to do when they’re not out tailgating and cheering on their respective teams.
Feel free to add on (we’re hoping that you do):
- Birmingham Museum of Art - we’re the only place in the Southeast (and one of only three places in the country) where you can see the international traveling exhibit from Pompeii this year.
- Birmingham Civil Rights Institute
- Birmingham Zoo
- Birmingham Botanical Gardens
- McWane Science Center
- Sloss Furnaces
There’s also some great food options too (especially since you love barbecue) - Full Moon, Dreamland, Golden Rule and Jim n Nick’s are the “big names” but there are others. You can head on over to Bhamdining.com to get some more information about what options exist.

I’d put the Barber Motorsports Museum pretty high on the list, and also recommend Highlands Bar & Grill and some of the other fine dining options.

There’s a Christmas Party at the Bottletree on the Friday before the bowl game. Take in that, and some of the pizza at Bettola for a fun way of recreating my night on the 17th.
Are any of the UAB museum things open that time? The health sciences museum, the art gallery, et al?
