I live in south Alabama. Most people LOVE college football here and have to make a choice at birth (LOL) of either Auburn or Alabama. If you know anything about the University of Alabama, they are known as the Crimson Tide and you can usually pick out a fan yelling "ROLL Tide" "Roll Tide roll" etc.  On to the fun part....

So my coworker comes in and starts asking me if I had a name picked out for my daughter yet. I tell her no and she said well a friend of mine just had their son and named him...

Rollin Tide

I started laughing thinking she was joking but she wasn't. Poor kid. He doesn't have a chance. 

WDYT?

HA! I live in Alabama.. I think that is soooo wrong to do to your child. I would have laughed thinking it was a joke, too! I think I could see someone naming their kid "Aubrie" (for Aubie/mascot) because they are an Auburn fan better than Rollin Tide. At least Aubrie is a real name!

LOL now that would be funny!! I was a super creep and went to your profile.. I used to live where you are! Grew up there my first 13 years of life and all of my family is still down there. I'm in Montgomery now, but live in Biloxi for quite a while, too.

That's crazy! I moved to Montgomery after Katrina.. I had lived in Montgomery before and this was the only place I had to last minute evacuate, so I pretty much stayed here since my job/child's daycare was destroyed. LJ can be such a small workd sometimes! I knew a guy who lived in Waveland.
