Trees killed near Bammer football stadium; Nick Saban pursues killer and the reward

Authorities suspect someone intentionally killed a row of live oak trees that stood between Bryant-Denny Stadium and a new luxury condominium development aimed at attracting University of Alabama fans as buyers.

The trees stand between The Legends, a new condominium development with prices starting around $360,000, and the university’s football stadium. The condos’ balconies face the stadium. [Montgomery Adviser]

Murderers?

( the victims in the background?? Tuck in that shirt fat-boy and the chick’s glasses are huge.  She does appear to have a nice rack.)

Immediately, I wondered if a Barner or a Coon-Ass or Les Miles was behind this. Or is this just one more weird twist in the bitter and one-sided {fear the thumb} Auburn and Bama rivalry? Or was it simply a fact that the trees obscured the view of Bryant-Denny Stadium from The Legends? Will the tree murders allow Legends [legends homepage] occupants a clear field of fire to pour urine and spit on opposing fans as they walk to Bryant-Denny? Or was it the Jimmy Barnes family retaliating against Bammer over Nick Saban’s verbal abuse and “loss of his dignity” [Barnes].

University alumnus Jon Drake, 58, said he would pay $5,000 for information that leads to someone spending at least three years in prison. Rumor is that Nick Saban is pursuing his own investigation hoping to win the award. Saban immediately became “hands on” after the reward was offered. Saban said “I love taking Bammer money”.

Saban in hot pursuit of the 5000 dollar reward? Look at the hand in the photo below, it should be noted that Nick Saban also chews his nails.

    It was probably just one tree that was killed but we all know how Bammer math works. By the end of the month it will have turned into 20 trees killed.

    Bammer mythology would state that the tree grew 50 ft. tall, and uprooted in an effort to stop St. Nick and his wife from recruiting, because the tree was under a spell cast by Tuberville. St. Nick then ran his thumb on his magical “Houndstooth Amulet”, grew to 120 ft (because they got 12 rings) and he slew the oak with his bare hands. He then forged the wood chips together to build a new wing to the Bear Bryant Museum, were “future” championship trophies will rest upon the fallen timber of Auburn. RTR…
