The Tradition of packing up a sack of fresh Satsumas into a Wal-Mart sack and presenting them to your friends and neighbors is as old as the Alabama itself. Of course, burlap sacks were used instead of plastic bags, and instead of friends and neighbors, they were given to the Spanish and were told these were native tomatoes. Many Paella were ruined in those days, and those seeking to make a Bloody Mary ended up creating Screwdrivers instead.

Don't think Alabama didn't get anything in return for the gift. As a token of gratitude, Florida has given Alabama a bag of Naval Oranges, an alligator full of Busch Light, and a time share of Tim Tebow for the month of July. Alabama hasn't announced what they will do with Tebow in July as of yet.
