Greetings to all Alamo and History buffs,
On September 10, 2004, the Alamo Sports Forum was created to be dedicated to discussing the history of the Alamo, along with professional sports as the major off-topic section. But within the first couple of years, the sports section was not too active so we changed the name to Alamo Central; a name that stands to this very day. Then about four years into our history as forum, we completed an upgrade to a brand new server and switched to a completely different site. The new forum was great and the features worked very well. However, over the course of less than a year, the server went down and was never recovered. The thousands of posts gained on the new site were lost forever. Being that I never deleted this, the original board, I have decided to re-open it in hopes that it will become as active as it once was in years past. This September we celebrated our fifth anniversary and we hope for many more, but we will need your help! I ask that you share you opinion in the many boards we have and encourage others to do the same. We cannot do this alone, and will need the help.
I reopened this site not to only recover some past glory, but to also further enrich the knowledge of the many Alamo and American history buffs out there. And don't forget, this site became famous for a simple tag line quipped by our most well known member, "Nefarious" Ned Huthmacher. It was about two years ago when he claimed that this was the "Alamo site with a twist". Ever since becoming known as that, we have taken pride for our vast off-topic section that includes our legendary Supernatural and Unexplained board as well as our Holiday traditions one. We hope that you will enjoy yourselves browsing the many interesting boards. Whether you want to partake in Alamo or just off-topic discussion, we ask that you keep discussions civil.
And above all, Remember the Alamo!
Regards,
Greg Caggiano
