What does the typical Bama fan look like?

When I encounter most Bama fans, I will ask them a question that even you & I that are Tennessee fans know the answer to . I will ask them something like " Who is Bama's starting Center?" they aren't able to answer that question. So, they aren't serious fans.
Also, the greater majority of them didn't become Bama fans until Saban took over. They have no taste of Bama losing.

I am sure we all remember Harvey Updike.

Does anyone else on here recall the year that Bama lost to Auburn and some Bama fans were having a cook out after the game. One lady, who was just a casual football fan and not necessarily a Bama fan, said "Why is everyone upset? It is just a game that we lost to Auburn" One of the by standers, pulled out a pistol and shot that lady in the chest.

Deserved it.

The most important aspect of his life is that EVERYONE must know that Alabama is his favorite team at every moment of his life. His truck, his trailer, his clothes, his pets, his arms, his parole papers - all of them must include a reference to his Bama fandom.

This is only in the good times. When Fran, Shula, Price, etc. were coaching, these were nowhere to be found.

One of my best friends is a Bama fan, the most humble fan I have ever known he has stated many times that he tries not to brag at all but he realizes what kinda dynasty they have going on. He has also said that he doesn’t know what he will do when they start to not win as much he’s 18, wish more Bama fans were like this...

You walk up to random strangers and do that? It probably has nothing to do with them not being able to answer. They're probably trying to get away from you because you're being kinda creepy.

He's a 38 year old grandfather who owns 14 shirts, thirteen of which have to do with Alabama football. Ten of those shirts list the number of mythical national titles his favorite team has "won".

The most important aspect of his life is that EVERYONE must know that Alabama is his favorite team at every moment of his life. His truck, his trailer, his clothes, his pets, his arms, his parole papers - all of them must include a reference to his Bama fandom. There is only 2 months of the year that a bama fan can get married. June and July, because these are the only 2 months when bama is not playing football or having a spring football game.

The Alabama fan base is a fractious mix of two distinct groups who can’t really stand each other.

At the top of the list is the 10-15% of the fan base that could actually be admitted to Alabama or attended the school.

This group hates most of the rest of the Alabama fan base with a passionate fury.

The other 85% of Bama fans are incapable of coherent thought and have a deep-seated insecurity about all things in life. Alabama football comprises, and this is not an exaggeration, 99% of their self esteem. The suicide prevention line in Alabama has a list of "on-call" associates who must report to work when Bama puts its FG unit on the field.

50% of the "other 85%" live in Alabama and have nothing else to root for, and the remaining 50% of the "other 85%" are a little smarter. They live in other states such as Tennessee, Mississippi, or Georgia. They claim that their parents moved to these states when they were 5. All of these are the bandwagon bammers. They are all silently glad their parents didn't stay in Alabama so they could have running water and electricity for their mobile homes.

Fully half of all Bama fans have a dog, cat or more likely a son or daughter named Bryant. In 10 years you will see a bunch of 8-9 year olds named Tua running around. Now you will understand why.

25% of bama fans did not see the finish of last years NC game, because they either shot or threw a bottle of beer at their big screens when Tua was sacked in overtime. They had to hear the shouts of ROLL TIDE in their trailer park after Bama actually came back and won.

To bad the toothbrush was invented by an Alabama fan. If it had been invented by a Tennessee fan, it would have been called to the teethbrush.

Based on a couple of quick google searches... Alabama, as a state, is:

#6 in poverty
#4 in illiteracy
#6 in obesity
#3 in support of trump

So in summary, bama fans are statistically likely to be poor, illiterate and/or fat trump supporters.

Those numbers don’t surprise me at all. My fiancé technically lives in Alabama due to where her house sits, but the other side of her yard is in Tennessee. Her family paid for her to go to a Tennessee school because Alabama’s whole system from top to bottom is awful and illiterate.

Maybe it's in a work environment? I work retail as a cashier and if people have football team's shirts on or a hat I go off that and make conversation about it. Or even customers in line will make small talk about sports to another customer in line as they're both waiting.

I also talk sports with my boss' and co-workers. How is any of those situations creepy?

However, I too get slightly annoyed when people have a sport team's shirt on and I bring it up with SIMPLE questions like "who do you guys play tomorrow?" if it's Friday or "did you guys win yesterday?" if it's Sunday and they reply "uhhh I don't even know".

Happens every day!
