“It would be economically catastrophic for Tuscaloosa if there is no football season,” Maddox said. “Even a mitigated football season with restricted attendance and number of ball games would have dire economic consequences.”

University of Alabama football means more to the city of Tuscaloosa than just bringing notoriety to the school and the state with a handful of national championships.
The team also brings in significant cash flow and it could mean a major loss should the college football season get canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. Mayor Walt Maddox told reporters on a video conference call that not having a season could result in about $2 billion in lost revenue.

Get out of here with conspiracy theory bullshiet. No one is orchestrating anything except boomers on facebook making fake ADA anti-mask cards. There's a virus that's spreading like wildfire and has already killed well over 100k people in the US.

If the city wants to not lose a ton of money they better stop Saban from being political against over half the population and the patriots and the majority of ala voters. He promoted the democrat senator who then tried to do a coup on the voters and the president Many patriots will now stop their support for u if Aja because of what Saban is doing playing politics and playing against the majority
