The victory cigars tradition goes back decades in the Alabama vs. Tennessee rivalry. Despite efforts by the NCAA at one point to attempt to outlaw the tradition, the ceremonial victory cigars remain in effect.
After trouncing the Vols on Saturday, the Alabama players partook in the tradition and indeed documented the celebration for all of us to enjoy.
The best part of the tradition? The players often go out onto the field to enjoy the cigars. Here are 17 great images showing off the 2016 version of Alabama vs. Tennessee victory cigars.
