Alabama is a massive national brand now, so the bandwagon has brought in a ton of money as well from around the country.

No you're not. Since I moved to Florida, I may have seen 1 Bama sticker on a car to every 100 AU one.

Massive national brand? I travel a bit and never see anything Bama. In south Florida I see about triple AU stuff to Bama stuff.

I really don't care about this issue of who sells merchandise where other than the fact that I am just dumbfounded by the succession of Aubs on this post claiming Alabama is not a national brand. Why in god's name does your alleged and oppressive Alabama Media/ESPN bias exist if it weren't for the fact that Alabama sells? Where is ESPN's motivation? Are you saying that these dumb bammer bandwagoners that make up about 50% of the inhabitants of the very poor 22nd most populated state buy so much gear that they offset the potential of the rest of the country combined? I guess you will just have to say yes to that question to continue to live in the fantasy world you have built for yourself, but I wish you understood how foolish you look. Again, no one here is bragging about national brands or selling the most merchandise, they are just stating that these things exist. I'm surprised that is controversial for so many here.
