<p>My S ('18) received a Bama shirt, sweater vest, Toms, bow tie, socks, hat, car decals and a crimson red coffee maker! Guess he HAS to attend Alabama now! ;)</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Yes, it’s a given!</p>
<p>I buy red whenever I can.</p>
<p>S got 2 tshirts, photo of AJ that my friend took at a game(she is doing a photo book for a friend that is a HUGE Bama fan) and he also got a photo of his frat house-she took it also… I wasn’t sure about the AJ photo and he commented that he has been the best QB in Alabama history… so I think he likes it! he also got 2 crimson/white button downs and a crimson zip up sweater so I’d say YES to answer the ?</p>
<p>Got lots of stuff for the Ds class of 2018. Today I brought myself a white Christmas tree lots of houndstooth ribbon, and other misc houndstooth Christmas stuff for next year. Roll Tide!</p>
<p>My S found quite by accident in a local store crammed full of Chicago sports stuff (think Bulls, Blackhawks, Cubs, Sox…), a UA wool banner featuring the 4 different logos they have had over the past 60+ years (or so). My H is planning to hang in his office at work. Odd, but I just googled it, and found one at LOWES?! Weird: [Shop</a> Winning Streak 32-in x 8-in Alabama Crimson Tide Banner at Lowes.com](<a href=“http://www.lowes.com/pd_437306-38506-139591_0__?productId=4164671&AID=10926682&PID=1609763&SID=tfc_-_27_103_131227_b2b93798887018c6fd5e92846f02b6d3%3A0000&cm_mmc=AFF_CJ-_-1609763-_-1499621-_-10926682]Shop”>http://www.lowes.com/pd_437306-38506-139591_0__?productId=4164671&AID=10926682&PID=1609763&SID=tfc_-_27_103_131227_b2b93798887018c6fd5e92846f02b6d3%3A0000&cm_mmc=AFF_CJ-_-1609763-_-1499621-_-10926682)</p>
<p>In addition to crimson fleece, I received an Alabama “Sportula”. Now I can brand my burgers with an official “A”.</p>
<p>Today I bought a t-shirt for D that says “Tide Pride.” It is red and has the shape of Florida in houndstooth next to the words. Very cute. It is a girl t-shirt so it is fitted and not baggy. Great find.</p>
<p>While shopping on Etsy for client gifts, I found a shop that had Pear Bryant Butter. Cute jar decorated in houndstooth. Tried it ourselves first and loved it! Wound up ordering 20 jars for gifts for families and friends. Now we’re hooked on all her goodies, including homemade fruitcake cookies. We’ve made a new friend, helping out a small business owner, and eating some healthy and delicious food thanks to Bama!</p>
<p>My Christmas tree has several UA-themed ornaments.</p>
<p>On the sentimental side of things, my mom made me a large blanket with Alabama Crimson Tide patterned fleece she bought coming home from my Bama Bound orientation in 2009. It’s very thick fleece and brings back a lot of good memories for me.</p>
