TBH Haven't even read the whole thing yet but read this part and figured it needed to be shared.
Alabama has a secret weapon for the national championship game
People are buying tickets, and many of them are related to Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.For fans of Alabama’s starting quarterback on the West Coast and beyond — and by beyond that means pretty much the entire state of Hawaii — this game in Northern California represents a unique opportunity. Family, friends and other fans can actually watch Tagovailoa in person for perhaps the only time in his collegiate career.
They’re taking full advantage of that opportunity.
At last count, the number of Tua’s extended family attending the game was at 405.
