WATCH: Trump Receives Incredible Reaction From 100,000+ Crowd At Alabama-Georgia Game
Thousands of students and fans packed in to greet former President Donald Trump at the highly anticipated Alabama-Georgia college football game on Saturday.
Trump had confirmed he would be attending the historic match-up earlier this month, keeping in line with the former president’s tradition of attending college football games on the campaign trail. Trump attended several games while campaigning in the Republican primary, and he also traveled to several games during his presidency, including the national championship game in 2017 and 2020.
On Saturday, the security presence was felt ahead of the former president’s arrival. In the wake of two attempts on his life in the last 100 days — one of which left Trump wounded and killed one of his supporters — Secret Service could be seen taking extra precautions ahead of the game.

Trump eventually arrived at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama roughly halfway through the first quarter.
He was immediately greeted by thousands of students and fans who packed in around both side’s of the former president’s entrance point. Students could be heard chanting “Four More Years” and “USA” as the Republican nominee greeted fans on both sides of the aisle.
Trump, who seemed to be enjoying himself, then took time to pass out hats and other objects to the large group. The former president once again received an enthusiastic reaction — this time from the crowd of 100,000 — when he was shown on the stadium scoreboard towards the end of the first quarter.
The Republican nominee was flanked by Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), Senator Katie Britt (R-AL), golf legend John Daly and several others in his suite. Chants of “USA” and “Four More Years” could once again be heard after the former president found his seat.
HOLY SH!T
