WATCH: Alabama players throw Nick Saban an elaborate Eagles-themed birthday party
Yes, it is Nick Saban’s birthday, and yes, it is Halloween (I’ll let you make your own jokes there). The living legend turned 67 on Wednesday and his players were in a celebratory mood.
Though Saban isn’t usually one to outwardly show anything but grumpiness, he does seem to be much more mellow behind the scenes.
As you can see in the video below, the Alabama players threw him a music-themed birthday party on Wednesday:

Saban actually cracked a few smiles, so that was good to see. Things are going well for the Tide, so it’s alright to have a little fun.
We’re sure the team got down to business shortly after the party, though, as they have a huge game at LSU this weekend.
