This is excerpted from a comedy LP album that came out in the late '60s. The guy does a phenomenal impersonation of the Bear.
I grew up in Tuscaloosa and remember listening to this as a 5th grader. Though it parodies the Bear, I think its in good fun and it intends no disrespect. (Well, maybe a little towards Auburn...)
Hope you enjoy it.
The audio refers to 1967 or 1968.
The images are from 1979.
We love you, Bear; and Roll, Tide; Roll!

The Bear, Observations of a Coach as told by Jay Higginbotham (1968?)

AFTER THE GAME
SIDE 2
PROLOGUE
THE BEAR'S SUNDAY SHOW
Be forewarned that some of the jokes are anachronistic inasmuch as they refer to the 1967 or 1968 seasons. These will be best enjoyed by historians of Alabama football. Also, if some of the jokes seem politically incorrect, don't get your jockstrap in a wad-- remember that the PC had not been invented in 1968!
This is my father! We just remastered the original album onto CDs. If you like the clip above, please visit us at coachbear*dot*net!

I'll bet you've listened to "Women Drivers." Have you ever performed it with your band?
If you can do a good rendition, upload it.

"15 Auburn men tackle him and I dont know where they got all those. You gotta watch these nAuburn people, they get kinda sneaky" hilarious. I'm sure the bear would have taken this in good stride. RTR!!!
