"We're going to the game, Pop!"
One lucky father and Alabama football fan received the ultimate Christmas present when he was surprised with a ticket to see the Crimson Tide play Notre Dame January 7 in the BCS National Championship game in Miami.
Unbeknownst to the man, the ticket was hidden inside a fedora hat given to him in a gift bag. After trying the hat on with the ticket still inside, his children then tipped him off to the surprise by asking him the size of the fedora.
Upon checking for the size, the man sees the prized BCS title ticket and his reaction is priceless. As for the ticket, the current going rate for a seat inside Sun Life Stadium to see Alabama take on the Irish is hovering around $1,000 on StubHub.
