On October 30, 1977 I was born in Dothan, Alabama to a family who had bled Alabama Crimson since the football teams’ inception in 1892. Growing up, all I knew was Alabama football.

Wanting to further engrain my DNA in Alabama fandom, my Dad took the liberty of having Alabama coaches sign and send me memorabilia. In my possession I have a signed picture of “Bear” Bryant addressed to me and dated just months before his death.
