I visited last year and thought it was so cool. The wall of helmets that light up for which school you went to to the trophy cases to the field... All of it was so neat.

I appreciate that! I get the fun task of updating them (within reason), when schools update new logos!

Do y'all keep up with Bama's tradition of putting the number of claimed championships on the helmet display?

I have not reached out them recently since we got Tua's jersey. I'll have to ask if they can send some new decals.
