It's a Bama Thing! (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The book is a humorous comparison on growing up in Alabama to a young athlete leaving home, undergoing, or enduring "The Process" and "growing up" in Crimson Tide country. It explores what it's like to be a "Bama" fan...its experiences, the friendships, ups, and downs, trials, and tribulations of wearing the crimson and white. So, what's it like to go anywhere in the country and hear "Roll Tide" loudly proclaimed by another fan? It's the society of the "A", the houndstooth coat and hat, about title town and eighteen football national championships (and counting!).

Whether you're from Alabama or not, if you're a fan, you can relate to this story (haters beware!). At a Bama game, participation can be a raucous occasion, full of pageantry, passion, purpose, and pride. Big Al dances, the crowd feverishly roars out "Roll Tide" at every venue. It's an event!

Do you wear the colors? Do you bleed crimson and white (admittedly, difficult to do)? Have you declared your allegiance to the crimson "A" or the houndstooth pattern (usually happens at birth)? Do you tremble with excitement and delight whenever a team from title town plays (preparing your voice to erupt with "Roll Tide")? Then far be it from me not to recommend this book as a good read. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wonder and say to yourself, "Hmmm." Hey, it's relatable. Get comfortable, pull up a chair or sit up in bed, read and soak it in. I mean really...it's a Bama thing!
