Where are the Best Places to Sit at Coleman Coliseum

Outside of floor seats, sections D and Q are the best places to sit at Coleman Coliseum, as these sections are located at court level. However, the view can vary greatly based on where in the section those tickets are located. Sections C, E, and P are also excellent options. These areas are a little more elevated than sections D and Q but are close to the center of the court and provide an excellent view of the court and easy access to the concourse. 

Tips for Visiting Coleman Coliseum

The location of Coleman Coliseum on the University of Alabama campus makes it easy to visit the Paul W. Bryant Museum, which is right across the street. The museum covers all Alabama sports, not just football, and should be considered a must-see place for anyone visiting Tuscaloosa for the first time. The location of the venue also makes it easy to walk around the rest of the Alabama campus. In particular, there are other sports venues close to Coleman Coliseum, including Bryant-Denny Stadium, the home of the Alabama football team.

Food to Try at Coleman Coliseum

Coleman Coliseum is located within walking distance of some of the best restaurants in Tuscaloosa. Specifically, there are some barbecue places in the area that are amazing. But if there is no time to eat before the game, there are options inside the arena. One redeeming trait of the concessions inside Coleman Coliseum is that they are consistent. Every stand is called the Crimson Grill and offers the same items, so you don’t have to walk around the entire arena looking for something. The pizza and hot dogs are the best thing on the menu, although you can’t go wrong with the nachos either.
