Perhaps you are just reading my posts and taking what you want from it? Ever think of that?

That was great! Would have been even better if there had been some fat guys, close-up, in slo-mo.

Yeah... then I immediately thought that couldn't be it. You're just too full of Bama.

I hate the way that we do fan day, but I'm not the one making the decisions. I really think getting autographs should be for the young kids, so if parents are taking their kids to get autographs from the players, then I applaud them for standing out in the heat that long, otherwise they are just being silly.


^^This X 1000


I took my son and his two buddies to BDS yesterday, sat in the stands and watched the practice, and the sat and watch them get their favorite players autographs, it was hot & humid as hell.

Those boys (10 & 11 yrs old) didn't give a shite about getting Nick Saban's autograph. All they cared about was meeting their favorite players, talking briefly with them and getting their footballs signed.

Fan Day should be all about the kids, IMO. Stupid men and women that run around like idiots trying to get shite signed is ridiculous.

I agree. I love Alabama football but these adults running like crazy people most likely knocking over kids is embarassing! I did find this quote from the paper hilarious.....

Hunter said he believes the autographs players and coaches sign for him generate good luck for those who sign them.

“Two years ago, my 5-week-old son, Bryant, was signed by Nick Saban. He signed his onesie. After Saban signed my baby, they won a national championship,” Hunter said, laughing.



Thats your boy right there!

This quote should be memorialized outside of Bryant-Denny kind of like Tebow's speech.

Totally agree, and in that heat, it should be some form of child abuse.
The only thing that I have heard that is just as stupid was on a documentary about UGA, and how a man was taking his new born son home from the hospital, and they had to stop by the stadium and have their picture made with UGA.

i dont care but that doesn't mean i wont enjoy laughing at the lower level people in life. the dude didn't take a shower for 3 days so his fatass could get a saban autograph


The fact that he already has Saban's autograph makes this behavior even more strange and pathetic.

Once again, Gump Pride Day does not disappoint. What did we ever do to deserve this manna from the heavens of the football gods?

Before I bid final adieu to this thread, here are some masterpieces from the fark board.

Can't wait for next year.

The day you stop responding to every "Bama sucks" post with your traditional "AUBURN SUCKS WORSE!" and every "Auburn is awesome" post with your traditional "BAMA IS EVEN MORE AWESOME!" is the day I'll stop pointing out your infatuation with all things Bama and Saban.

With that standard having been set, I haven't yet had to worry about stopping my side of the infatuation.




Come on now, you're both better than this.

Sports by Brooks totally ripped your video off and took the title of this thread.

Just further proof that assclown reads this board and is a two bit hack.

ETA: His only redeeming contribution was providing up close footage of the Race Against Time.

The "compare ugliest fans" thing is a lose lose situation every time. We all need to accept that we all have bottom feeders in our fanbases and leave it at that. No one wants to look at these idiots, or our idiots.

I beg to differ. High quality entertainment. Better than Mob Wives.
