Trump will be attending Saturday.

[RTR91]

Stadium is reportedly opening up early at 11:30 a.m. That could be helpful, but I'm not sure who would really want to go sit in the stadium that long.

Will there be an early light show? :biggrin2:

If they play some decent Rock Videos on our awesome sound and video system, I might be good with that... :cool2:

Some notes for attendees: Don’t carry unneeded metal items. Clear your pockets when you get near the detector. Women should only carry the sanctioned clear bags.

My daughter’s next door neighbor is a secret service agent who is on the POTUS travel advance team. If I told you which airfield AF1 will fly into, he would have to kill me.

Forget that for a moment, and consider that Tuscaloosa Regional will either have to be upgraded or passed over in security plans to be able to hold AF1. So there is a more than good chance that the presidential convoy is coming from Montgomery, Meridian, Jackson, or Birmingham.

President Reagan used Tuscaloosa Regional for his visit in the mid-80s

Let us know what you can - there'll be a big Tidefans tent that would love to hand you some food if you can make it by.

Nothing newsworthy trickled down to my level yet. Just verification that he'll be here.

Thanks for the food offer, but I won't be able to make it over to Presidential Park.

So you're saying you wouldn't give up your life for Tidefans?
:tongue:

Plus, that's only 30 minutes earlier than they would normally open up.

President Obama also used Tuscaloosa Regional with AF1 when he came to visit after the historic tornado in 2011. Wouldn't be surprised if this is the same route for President Trump honestly. It would be a quicker way in verses coming in from the other airports.

That, and I think he's a big fan of Nick Saban.

Coach Saban just loves distractions like this...

I guess that's better than missing the entire first quarter...

I can only imagine Saban's reaction when he was told that the President will be attending Saturday's game. (Nothing to do with politics, everything to do with "external factors"...).

I can just imagine his outburst, even if it had been George Washington...

He’s not taking Air Force One into Tuscaloosa. He’s going to get there by chopper.

 

[ROTYDE]

You think the Air Force can organize a monster flyover for this event? That by itself might make the inconvenience worthwhile.

Air Force One to fly between the goal posts.. That would be awesome.

And the Trumpster parachutes in, lands at midfield, and does the coin toss. [emoji2957]

...and gives the TV time out guy a new red hat.

I'll be very surprised if that's the case. It doesn't make much sense if they can land at TCL (and they can definitely land at TCL).

 

[irNate]

AF1 Flyover would be cool

How would this impact all the private planes arriving/leaving TCL for the game?
