Synopsis

The unofficial guide to the home of the Crimson Tide!

Originally published in 2007, The University of Alabama Trivia Book has been updated with a wealth of new and recent facts about the home of the Crimson Tide. Over 700 questions (with answers!) and quotations span the nearly 200-year history of UA, ranging from the fun to the significant, and from the bizarre to the informative. This book is the quintessential source of information about Alabama’s oldest and largest public university, perfect for current and prospective students, alumni, college sports fans, and Tuscaloosans in town and all over the world.

Updates include facts related to much-beloved football in the Nick Saban era, interesting statistics and sports records, and some fascinating faculty trivia, bringing new stories and names to light. Discover obscure facts, forgotten lore, and exciting tidbits about everything from student life and traditions to Town and Gown, including:

  • Who was the first woman to earn a law degree at UA?
  • What are the origins of "Big Al"?
  • What year did the football team start wearing hard helmets?
  • When was air conditioning first installed on campus?
  • And much more!
