🏈 I found this post surfin'...Tennessee, and the Roll Tide Commercial...

[TerryP]

If you haven't seen the commercial, crawl out from the rock you're under. I've embedded it below...heck, I had to watch it again and still laughed a bit.

What can I say? It's true on so many levels.

Anyway...found this post on another forum this evening...figured it was worth sharing.

My wife and I entered a Mexican restaurant in Ashland City, Tennessee. The six patrons at the first table were staring at us intently. As we walked by one of the men asked if the truck with Bama tags was ours. I responded "ROLL TIDE". Most everyone at the table put on a crimson hat or pulled open their jacket and showed Crimson of one kind or another. We chated for a minute and when I mentioned that I had worked for Coach Bryant, Granny got up and hugged me and everyone yelled "ROLL TIDE".
Several minutes later a family came from the back room and I noticed a script A and mildly said "ROLL TIDE". The entire family yelled back "ROLL TIDE" and revealed Crimsom and White. The family at the door heard the exchange and someone said "They are for ALABAMA too" and they all yelled "ROLL TIDE",,,,,,,,,We all yelled "ROLL TIDE" and they walked out the door. The man at the booth next to me smiled, put on his orange hat, and said "ALL we were missing were the TV cameras.
Hope I sent some of the feeling that was in the room to all of you.

The ending of the commercial reminded me of my uncle. He went to Bama and played in the band. The funeral flyer used had "Roll Tide" on the front of it. RIP Greg Tucker.
