| ESPN's list of Super Fans Crimson Tide fan Dick Coffee of Birmingham is No. 1 on ESPN.com's list of college football superfans 5:31 AM . I read about Mr. Coffee last year before the NC, he is 88 and attended his first game after returning from serving in WWII, he hasn't missed a game since , 741 and counting, pretty amazing.

| I'm sorry but "Super Fan" is not how I would describe a grown man putting a tattoo of Bear Bryant on his back and calling it "the love of my life". That guy should be ridiculed even by Bama fans.

| Buck-I-Guy is friends with the secretary in our office. Needless to say the guy is a goofball. He told me he's trying to get his image licensed or something, so the networks have to pay him everytime they show him on TV. He's tried to turn this into his job. He goes around and wants appearance fees for stopping by offices and stuff. |

I guess I missed the fact that it is Alabama Appreciation Month on my calendar. Posted via VolNation Mobile |
