The Alabama football team will be honored for its College Football Playoff National Championship with a parade beginning at Denny Chimes and a program held on the north steps of Bryant-Denny Stadium at the Walk of Champions on Saturday, Jan. 23.



The parade, which will feature head coach Nick Saban, the players and staff along with Director of Athletics Bill Battle and other dignitaries and special guests, will start at 10 a.m. on University Boulevard at Denny Chimes. The parade will conclude at the Walk of Champions with a ceremony on the top steps of the Bryant-Denny Stadium North End Zone that will be emceed by the voice of Alabama football, Eli Gold.



The parade and celebration will be sponsored by Academy Sports and Regions Bank. Giveaways will include 10,000 championship posters and 5,000 national championship promotional items.

OHVATN, Vermin, Mainstreet, Pal -- If y'all need a place to stay my boy has plenty of floor space and he's only a block and a half from the stadium. Jes' let me know. BTW if Spur shows up he'll have to sleep in the parking lot.

Probably be as many of us there as Bandwagon Nation. They don't go to the games. I'm sure they won't go to this. They'll probably buy a new wal mart t shirt though.

Thanks for the offer, but I have to coach my son's basketball team that day

Sounds like a quaint affair. When Ohio State celebrated its national championship last year, they had to have it inside Ohio Stadium not on the steps.
 
I think I will go. After all it's not everyday you get to see a National Championship parade. You should go, when was the last time you went to one? :poke: :)

Yes, probably a relatively low key event; national championship celebrations are so frequent in Tuscaloosa they're starting to get a little old-hat. :smash:

I know what you mean. Mount Union has won 12 national championships in the past 22 years. It's nothing special anymore. :smash: :stir: :poke: :rotf: :drool:

So is that an RSVP "yes?" Do you need directions? Room in the parking lot is filling up fast. 8-)

I'd rather run through hell in gasoline soaked clothes. When I said "us" I was referring to Tennessee fans. We won't go and neither will bandwagon nation.

That's what I figured. Of course, standing in the shadow of the Bear Bryant statue surrounded by 100,000 Bama fans has to be pretty much your version of hell anyway. :poke:

Wow, we've finally found something we agree on: Bama fans and bandwagoners are two entirely different groups. :tu:

We probably have different definitions of bandwagon fan. I don't care when you got on the bandwagon. If you pull for a team you have no ties to because they win a lot, you are a bandwagon fan. One of my best friends is a bama fan. He started rooting for bama in 1971. Why? Because they won a lot. I call him a bandwagon fan almost daily. He was born, raised, and has lived his whole life in Tennessee. He never attended one class at alabama. But they win a lot, so yes, he's a bandwagon fan. :tu:

The funny part is I personally know 3 Alabama grads. You can talk football with them. They are modest winners. Give credit where credit is due. They don't say roll tide after every sentence. I could go to a UT-Alabama game at any of their houses and have a great time. They are nothing like the bandwagon chumps. As a matter of fact, they hate them worse than I do because they make the university and all bama fans look bad.

Nothing special anymore? Has winning a D3 championship EVER been anything special? :smash: :stir: :poke: :drool:


Disclaimer: No disrespect intended for Mount Union, the players, coaches, staff, cheerleaders, mascot, students, administration, the entire NCAA Division III, the Von Trapp family singers, or anyone involved except OHVATN (and he knows I'm just funnin'). Those kids play for the BEST reason: love of the game. I just couldn't let that slow pitch cross the plate without connecting :tu:.
