Julio Jones & Mark Ingram’s NCAA struggles appear to be over as they are cleared to play in the Georgia Dome on Saturday, but Bama fans seem to have another struggle of note between their hatred of shirts and their love of their football team…
Do you really think that is just a "coke"? And is that a 3rd Nipple?
You see, it ain’t natural to wear clothes in the sun. Especially at ‘Dega. But how in the heck are you supposed to represent your pride and joy without one?
When you have spent tens and tens of dollars on special edition “In the NICK of Time” and “Alabama Crimson Tide Back-to-Back Recruiting National Champions” tee-shirts, you feel awful just leaving them in the closet. The world needs to know you are a Tide fan. This is where the stomach tattoo comes in handy. Not only is it always with you, but when you need some more room to fill in another National Championship Season all you have to do is increase your calorie intake and decrease your physical activity.
So get a stomach tat already and you won’t need a tee to show Tide Pride while patching the roof of your home with a rake…

I’m not sure I’m ready for the Alabamian experience.

You forgot a third, more powerful struggle: The struggle with reality and historical understanding vs the compulsion to boast about puffed-up fictional accomplishments. See the “Championships” of 1941, et al.
The first clue should be when your team finishes t-3rd in the SEC and is shut out by Miss St and Vanderbilt, you weren’t really National Champions. Just like when you get your azz beat by Nebraska or Texas or Notre Dame in a bowl game, but the pollsters don’t vote again, you weren’t really National Champions. Or when some guy no one has ever heard of awards you a “retroactive” National championship, along with 6 other teams, and you don’t even start claiming them til your program starts sliding 60 years after the fact, you weern’t REALLY National Champions.

plus, the more he drinks and the older he gets, the more those accomplishments get puffed up.

You have two types of Alabama fans.
1. Alabama fan. Went there, booster, alum, supports the university and all its sports. Greets each other with a roll tide.
2. Roll Tide Fan. Roll Tide Fan only knows the football team plays on Saturday, wears cut off t-shirts, or none, and when in “loosa”, stays out on Skyline Blvd. at the Motel 6. First and last words out of his mouth is ROLL DAMN TIDE! to anything.
This guy falls under “Roll Tide Fan” for sure.

NashTiger,
Is that similar to your 1957 title when Aubarn (AL) didn’t play in a bowl game due to being banned because of probation?
What about SEC titles? Let’s talk your bogus 1988 and 1989 titles (keep in mind this was before the SEC Championship game was introduced). In both 1988 and 1989, EACH OF YOUR SHARING PARTNERS of those seasons had MORE SEC VICTORIES THAN AUBARN (AL) DID!
Let’s also talk about how you guys hang up an SEC Western Division title banner, yet you guys didn’t play in the SEC Championship game because YOU LOST THE TIE BREAKER GAME!
And to talk about a true “Alabama State experience” try visiting Lee County for a weekend where there’s a rodeo each and every Saturday and sometimes Sundays where on average over 17,000 redneck Aubarn (AL) students attend. Or travel down Wire Road where there’s trailer park after trailer park. Or check out a fraternity costume party (where caucasian students paint their skin black, and others dress in white hoods). And let’s not forget about the “Lee County Tractor Pulls (see YouTube)”. Or the fact that there’s only about four bars in the entire town and they all feature nothing but D-list country music bands (flooded with you guessed it: redneck Aubarn (AL) students). Let’s not forget about the on-campus cow pastures, chicken houses, and catfish ponds!
Gotta love those amazing Aubarn (AL) fans:

Hey cluetard,
Here are the conference records for the SEC champions for 1988 and 1989…
1988
Auburn 6-1-0
LSU 6-1-0
1989
Alabama 6-1-0
Auburn 6-1-0
Tennessee 6-1-0
Too bad Auburn or LSU didn’t think to schedule an extra game against Vanderbilt in 1988 or 1989 so they could rig a championship like bammer did in 1972.
