“Run, Forrest, Run!”

Following Alabama’s 52-24 win over Ohio State in the national title game, Tuscaloosa’s Strip was packed with Tide fans celebrating the blowout victory over the Buckeyes. Police eventually had to break up the party; however, one shining moment from the celebration left us laughing.

Someone was running the sidewalks of Tuscaloosa dressed as Forrest Gump. You have to respect this hustle.

As the movie portrays, Gump attended the University of Alabama and played for the football team after impressing Bear Bryant with his running ability. Maybe the guy dressed as Gump will get a call from Nick Saban.
