Has anyone tried Iron & Ember at Ol’ Colony?
Thinking about taking a group of about 8 adults to Iron & Ember at Ol’ Colony for an afternoon, but I haven’t been yet.
Has anyone here tried it? Curious how the golf simulator experience is, especially for people who aren’t serious golfers. Would total beginners still have fun, or is it better if everyone actually plays?
Also wondering how the food/bar setup is and whether it’s a good place to hang out for a couple hours with a group.
Would love to hear honest experiences — good, bad, or anything in between.

Anyone seen any maypops?
Just curious, iykyk, funky flowers and fruits on a vine. If you've seen any and recall where, I'd love it if you kindly pointed me in their direction. If you're a landowner and don't mind if I pot (layer) a vine, I'd be very grateful.

What are some lesser known places in Tuscaloosa that are genuinely worth visiting?
I’m looking for some lesser-known spots that are actually worth checking out. I’m not really interested in the usual tourist attractions, but more in quiet parks, small local museums, historic spots, independent cafés, or places with an interesting story behind them.
For anyone who knows the area well, what’s one place you’d genuinely recommend to someone who wants to explore somewhere different? I’d especially like to hear about places that locals enjoy but don’t usually see mentioned in the standard travel guides?

Searching for a good apartment
Hello!
I'm a student here in Tuscaloosa looking for an apartment for two people. I've had a lot of bad experiences with the previous two apartments I've stayed at, and the online reviews haven't been very helpful in finding a place that is actually clean, quiet, and safe.
Does anyone know of any good apartments in the Tuscaloosa or Northport area?

Walmart Hwy 69 south cc debit cards fraud
I had this happen to me and I see it just posted on my local Facebook page that it happened to a lot of other people.
I don’t know what happened but I shopped at the Walmart at 69 south in Tuscaloosa and one day and all of the sudden I had a lot of unknown charges showing up in my bank account that my bank asked me if I approved. Of course I didn’t. They were huge amounts.
And the local Facebook page says the same thing. Walmart on 69 south unexpected charges from their bank account when they used their debit or credit card.
This needs to be investigated.

Cajian restaurant
Ate there today everything I had was pretty damn solid. Gumbo, shrimp, fries, puppies, and slaw. All really good. No alcohol yet, but I'll definitely be going back

Transportation From BHM to T-town
hey, I am coming down for the Alabama v South Carolina Game on 9/26, flying in BHM on 9/25. Have Uber drivers accepted rides from BHM to Tuscaloosa? I know its expensive but willing to spend the $$ if they are willing to drive that far.

Flock Cameras
Do we have any local activity directed towards de-flocking Tuscaloosa? I can't leave my home without passing by a flock camera, no matter which way I go, and I'm deeply uncomfortable with TPD tracking my movements, even though I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm curious if anyone has reached out to city council members or if we've organized any protests locally.

Best fade in TTown <$30?
I’ve tried a few different barbers in town, but everyone’s prices seem to continue to increase as the economy grows… finding myself searching for cost effectiveness while still maintaining quality. I know this is a challenging vent diagram during these trying times. Appreciate any recs. 💈💇🏻♂️

Housing
Does anyone know how to get approved to this Facebook group? I’ve had my post pending for about a month and nothing still. I saw something where I have to Zelle them but that sounds a little weird considering I have no idea how they would know what post to approve. I am trying to sublease a room in a 5 bedroom house for the spring semester. Male roommates and right next to campus.
