Rah-Rah-Rah Sis Boom Bah! There’s no time to hem and haw! College football season is here at last! In Alabama, we’ll be adding War Damn Eagle and Roll Tide Roll to our Boom Bah!

This is a sponsored post that contains affiliate links for which I may receive a commission. However, all opinions are my own. I am a fan of this company in addition to my beloved Tigers for three reasons.
- They are uniquely southern, and
- They ever so politely opened the door for me to write about fashion for college football fans! And…
- I LOVE their accessories!
You know how I love fashion! And…No matter what color your shaker is, these are some dadgum cute accessories! And, men, I even have a couple of things to highlight for you! Spoiler alert! You will have to get your own bourbon!
