Why I am an Alabama fan.

[lstephen]

Well, let's see:

1. Born and raised in Northport, just minutes from campus.
2. Every member of my family is a Bama fan. I get it honest.
3. 1999 grad of the U of A.
4. I believe in "acting like you've been there before."
5. I believe in "always keep your heads up and act like champions."
6. I believe in "winning with class."
7. I believe in "winning isn't everything, but it sure beats coming in second."
8. HE was "nothin' but a winner."
9. I believe in "THE PROCESS."
10. 15 national championships, 60 bowl appearances, 35 bowl wins, 27 conference titles

Need any more reasons? RTR!!!

11. No choice, I married one!

Born in the early 50's in Alabama. Dad smoked Chesterfields and wore a houndstooth hat. I think I was born loving BAMA football!

[Old Tider]

Born in the old Druid City Hospital on the campus.  You can't get much closer than that.  Father was a UA professor and mother a UA graduate.

1. Born in Birmingham, raised there, Decatur, & in Centerpoint.
2. Attended first game as teenager with dad & uncle in 1967. Alabama/Ole Miss at Legion Field.
3. Watched live as Alabama played & lost to Notre Dame in 1973 at 3 am in the morning while serving in the Army in Germany (snowing & cold night).
4. Most importantly, son & daughter are Tide fans, especially son. The tradition carries on.
5. Saw Ali/Foreman fight live in Germany. (Throwing that in to make everyone jealous)

Good stuff. These are the most important things to remember in my opinion. Remember, it's just a game.

MD, the first Bama game I ever attended was also the Bama-Ole Miss game in 1967. 

The Snake led Bama over Ole Miss 21-7.

Do you remember the smoke bomb being thrown into the end zone? Or the Ole Miss fans constantly saying, "go to hell Alabama, go to hell." At the time it was scandalous.

I will never forget it. My dad took my cousin and me to the game. When they were chanting that, my dad saw me looking up at him. He looked down at me and said "Eff 'em".
