Alabama vs Arkansas 2013

Alabama versus Arkansas... If you watched it, I don't have to tell you how great the Crimson Tide played tonight. If you did NOT see this game, Arkansas was blown away with a final score of 52-0. I was in Tuscaloosa to document family member, Kenneth King's ceremonial flip of the coin.... those pics and that experience are forthcoming...Meanwhile, here are a few pics from my exciting evening at Bryant Denny Stadium!

A HERO!

The night starts off with a prayer... A foray into the woods and back roads of Alabama (with guide, Jarmar of Cultureshock) brought Team Johnson into the midst of A Hero's Celebration. A H.E.R.O (actually) America's Heroes Enjoying Recreation Outdoors becomes an outlet for wounded veterans. A support group that takes vets on hunting and fishing expeditions. So how does a paraplegic hunt, you may ask? Mr. Holmes demonstrates his all titanium gun rig with a straw operated trigger. The crowd giggles along with him as he also points to his beer straw. He chuckles and explains how he has to remember which straw is which! A small screen serves as his sight. He recently upgraded and was proud of its newer night vision capabilities.   ........................................................ The non profit organization invited friends from the Mixed Martial Arts world, of which included the likes of Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson and Manager/Owner, Lex McMahon
