President Donald Trump says he will attend the Oct. 10 college football matchup between Georgia and Alabama at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa. The game is scheduled for 7:30 p.m., according to reports. Trump makes the announcement while speaking at an event in Mobile, Alabama.
The outlets describe the announcement as part of Trump’s broader travel to rally Republicans ahead of the midterm elections. Fox News and The Hill both report the venue and date, framing it as a return to Alabama for the high-profile “Georgia vs. Alabama” game. Yahoo Sports similarly highlights the added attention from Trump’s participation.
