Charter plane carries Alabama fans from Mobile to Miami

MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - Crimson Tide football fans boarded a charter plane headed for sunny Miami on Saturday.

The nearly 150 people, mostly Alabama fans, will attend the BCS National Championship game on Monday.

Janson Graham of Mobile says it will be his fourth time attending a BCS Championship game.  His young son, J.R., flew along for his first big game.

It's also Teresa Adams first Championship game.  She's predicting the Tide will win by 7 points.

"I know a lot of people are saying more points but,  I don't want to discount Notre Dame. I  mean every team's tough, and you don't know until it's all over with," Adams said.

There were plenty of Roll Tide' cheers heard as the fans boarded their plane for Miami.  They're hoping to be just as excited after a Bama win when they head home next week.

Of course, there were a couple of Notre Dame fans on the flight with the same thing in mind.

FOX10 News Reporter Renee Dials will have more from the airport tonight at 9 p.m.
