http://wkrg.com/2017/11/15/mpd-update-alabama-fan-shoots-auburn-fan-outside-motel-in-mobile/
Was wonder whether either of them had a complete set of teeth and what kind of booze they been drinking?

Bama gonna Bama
November 15th, 2017 at 6:50 PM ^
This happens pretty much every day in the great state of Alabama.
November 15th, 2017 at 6:52 PM ^
SEC. It just means more.
November 15th, 2017 at 9:18 PM ^
SEC=Shoot 'Em Conference
November 16th, 2017 at 10:18 AM ^
SEC was an abbreviation for secondary. Two idiots in Alabama arguing football and one getting shot. Sounds like the start of a redneck joke.
November 15th, 2017 at 6:54 PM ^
But not as frequently as it does in the great state of Maryland!
Maryland-Navy: the only rivalry more vitriolic than the Iron Bowl! Also, good God, Maryland, get a new rival! You aren't going to out-gun the freaking Navy!
November 15th, 2017 at 7:55 PM ^
On a less demented note, did anyone hear about a scuffle in the stands after the Maryland game? My wife saw something on the Internet about this on Monday, but I can't find a thing. Anyone there who may have seen this?
November 15th, 2017 at 11:11 PM ^
There was a scuffle between Miami and ND fans that made the news.

She might have seen a story in reference to UM fans fighting and thought it was about Michigan.
November 15th, 2017 at 7:05 PM ^
I swear to God I thought you wrote, "Meth. This happens."
November 15th, 2017 at 7:08 PM ^
Also true
November 16th, 2017 at 10:53 AM ^
I moved to Alabama for a job in November 1997. Walked into a mattress store to buy a new bed, and a salesman walked up to me and said "who ya for?"
I asked him "who am I for what?"
Salesman: "the Iron Bowl"
I asked him what the Iron Bowl was, and he recognized by my accent that I was from out of town. He explained about the Alabama vs. Auburn matchup and after prompting told me he was an Alabama fan.
I asked him "what if I was for Auburn?"
Salesman: "Then one of THOSE guys would wait on you." (pointing to the Auburn-friendly sales staff)
So basically, he would give up the commission on a roughly $2,000 bedding set, all because of who I rooted for in a football game.
So this news story does not surprise me in the least.

Damn man
November 15th, 2017 at 7:00 PM ^
Bama translation:
Jim: M R Ducks
Jim Bob: M R not ducks
Jim: O S A R ducks
Jim Bob: L I B...M R ducks
English translation:
Jim: Them are ducks
Jim Bob: Them are not ducks
Jim: Oh yes they are ducks
Jim Bob: Well I'll be...Them are ducks

You've got this one in the barrel ready for copy-paste, don't you?
November 15th, 2017 at 9:03 PM ^
Not even mad, Im amazed.
November 15th, 2017 at 7:05 PM ^
about right
November 15th, 2017 at 7:05 PM ^
Harvey Updyke approves
November 15th, 2017 at 7:18 PM ^
and - of course - he tweeted this story. Crazy Bama fan never changes.
November 15th, 2017 at 9:32 PM ^
NOT surprise me?
November 15th, 2017 at 7:13 PM ^
Guess those commercials are true.
The SEC. It just means more.
Sadly though, there’s a precedent for this. Pretty sure an Auburn fan murdered a Bama fan after he 2013 game. Or the other way around. It’s a weird breed down in the great state of Alabama.
November 15th, 2017 at 7:40 PM ^
An Alabama fan shot another Alabama fan because she was pissed the other wasn't upset enough about losing on the kick six.
November 15th, 2017 at 7:41 PM ^
They were both Bama fans, the one lady was distraught that the other lady was not more visibly mad that Bama had just lost!
November 15th, 2017 at 7:24 PM ^
"Hold my beer"
November 15th, 2017 at 7:27 PM ^
I swear this has happened before.
November 15th, 2017 at 8:29 PM ^
It was AFTER the game. The “missed kick return TD” to be exact. And it was an older woman who didn’t care enough about the game. Made a funny comment about Bama, and the Bama fan got mad and shot her.
November 15th, 2017 at 7:38 PM ^
Why would a Bama fan be that mad? I mean really, what could an Auburn fan say that could get them that riled up?
November 15th, 2017 at 8:05 PM ^
dilly dilly
November 16th, 2017 at 7:50 AM ^
Can't believe people are actually using this "catch phrase." It was lame on the commercial and is even more so in every other context.
November 15th, 2017 at 8:22 PM ^
“We’re definitely beating Bama this year!”
November 15th, 2017 at 8:58 PM ^
Kick six?
November 15th, 2017 at 8:10 PM ^
...leads to sh*t like this
November 15th, 2017 at 8:26 PM ^
Not the worst news to come out of Alabama lately
November 15th, 2017 at 8:29 PM ^
Always going to be a win/win when a Bama fan and Auburn fan go at it. No matter the loser, mankind is the winner.
November 15th, 2017 at 8:37 PM ^
at least no teenagers were molested
November 15th, 2017 at 8:54 PM ^
you have scruples.
November 16th, 2017 at 5:30 AM ^
He is VERY discriminating
November 15th, 2017 at 8:37 PM ^
When football takes over your life - step away from your fandom.
November 16th, 2017 at 12:17 AM ^
there are millions of hardcore fans who don't do anything egregious. But I guess this brings a whole new meaning to the phrase," I live and die with my team" or "I bleed (my team's colors)"
November 15th, 2017 at 8:39 PM ^
Paul Finebaum approves bc how dare anyone even believe Alabama could ever lose?
November 15th, 2017 at 8:45 PM ^
November 15th, 2017 at 9:02 PM ^
They were probably cousins and didnt know it.
November 15th, 2017 at 9:27 PM ^
It would be funnier if Paul Finebaum got shot. By Pete Finebaum. Or if they shot each other.
November 15th, 2017 at 9:37 PM ^
Paul Magbaum has Auburn elimanted with the first round and Alabama eliminated with the second round. America is the CFB playoff winner.
November 15th, 2017 at 10:10 PM ^
Yall didn’t know he was a virgin til he was 28 and now...roll tide!
November 15th, 2017 at 10:19 PM ^
“The argument escalated, with the Alabama fan pulling out a firearm and shooting the Auburn fan in the thigh. The Alabama fan fled on foot, and as of Wednesday afternoon, is still on the loose.
The victim’s condition is still unknown at this time.”
Apparently the police and health care systems are equally slow in Alabama. 24 hours later and they haven’t caught a guy on foot and can’t assess the condition of a thigh wound.
November 15th, 2017 at 11:33 PM ^
Jesus, someone tell Roy Moore to cool it for a few days!
November 16th, 2017 at 1:46 AM ^
his entertainment options became severely limited ever since he got banned from the mall.
November 16th, 2017 at 12:30 AM ^
First things first. I'm pretty sure they both had a total of two or a single tooth, they only drink moonshine and I hope he made the shot count. I say that because I'm positive they still have the old single shot revolvers down there. Other than the college campuses and stadiums, the entire state is like the movie Deliverance. Man I remember my dad watching that when I was in second grade or something. Spooky and stupid at the same time. Then there is the movie and series Fargo. I guess I shouldn't really talk. This area is full of nascar hillbilly dipshits as well.
EDIT: Four types of people here which I find to be funny in a hundred mile radius just in case anyone ever gets stranded. You have the people that wear hunting gear all year, Bison gear, nascar gear or some dumb ass heavy metal band like slipknot. Pick the person with the green or yellow Bison cap if you can.
