Roll Tide from Tuscaloosa

This Saturday, when Alabama hosts Texas A&M at Bryant-Denny Stadium, fans will get something extra special before kickoff, an official NASA flyover.

NASA confirmed that three F-5 fighter jets will fly over the stadium on Saturday, October 24th, and NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman is scheduled to pilot one of the jets. That’s the kind of pregame moment that makes you pause, look up, and appreciate the spectacle, before the first snap.

Along with the flyover, NASA will host a free experience zone on Champions Lane, open from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Central, no game ticket required. It’s a cool way for families, students, and visitors to enjoy something outside of football, blending science, innovation, and Crimson Tide tradition, all in one afternoon.

Roll Tide.
