Bama night at the College Inn
by Luke Douglas
Website Admin for BamaDenver.com
It's not often that I get the chance to join other Alabama Alumni and Fans to watch the Crimson Tide roll over an opponent. My trips to Denver are few, 2-3 times a year, and timing is everything.
However, this weekend I had the immense pleasure to join a couple hundred other Bama fan's in watching Alabama dominate a great LSU team, 29-0. My visit to the College Inn was my first time there but the intensity was the same as what I had viewed at other venue's. It was a family outing with my wife, son and daughter as our blood runs Crimson Red. But it was great to see Dani Johnson again as it had been a few years.
I can't wait for my next visit!

Clemson has joined the brotherhood of the college elite and Dabo isn't going anywhere unless Nick Saban retires and, well, you've heard the talk if that happens.
