Watch: Crowd for LSU-Alabama has minute-long uproar as Donald Trump hit big screens
The Advocate, Nov 9, 2019

Among the packed stadium for LSU vs. Alabama in Tuscaloosa were two anticipated special guests, President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The Bryant-Denny Stadium crowd's reaction to the President and First Lady's presence had a different tone compared to Trump's last sporting event visit during Game 5 of the World Series in D.C., where he was booed by the crowd.

The pair was shown on the stadium's four LED screens, standing and waving to the cheering football fans The moment came during the first drive of the game after Alabama had called a timeout as they faced a third-down play from LSU's 8-yard line.

The cheer last long enough that the players for LSU and Alabama were all standing near the line of scrimmage waiting for play to be allowed to resume.

'Baby Trump' balloon slashed at Alabama appearance

1 hr ago

 
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — A towering Baby Trump protest balloon was knifed and deflated by someone unhappy with its appearance during President Donald Trump's Saturday trip to Alabama, organizers said.

The incident occurred during Trump's visit to watch the University of Alabama football game. The balloon, which is over 20 feet (6.1 meters) tall, was set up in a nearby park.

Hmm......so while Alabama #1 and LSU #2 were playing for the national championship;
isn't it obvious that the core reason fans showed up, was to hoot and holler for Trump?

The author isn't saying that, nor is anyone else @Absalom The author drew a comparison between the reaction to the President inside the swamp and outside the swamp.

Surely, this wasn't lost on you.

You don't know college football in state.... I don't care if Alabama or Auburn are playing a third rate nobody, there will be a sellout crowd in attendance.

Football in the south and the SEC is the marrow of the world. And by God I am right.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
