Only a huge college football fan would ever be able to relate to anything like this. A man wanted to propose to his girlfriend in a special way, and he decided that doing it from Nick Saban’s office would be the most romantic. The man’s name is Drew Clayton, and his fiancé, Kayla Posey, was employed by the Alabama football program while attending Alabama.
According to AL.com, Clayton arranged the proposal through some of Posey’s friends in the football office. They helped him hide in the private bathroom inside the coach’s office while Posey was out to lunch. They also replaced Saban’s 2012 BCS National Championship Ring with the engagement ring.
When Posey returned from lunch, she was instructed to clean some of Saban’s rings in preparation for a visit from a very important guest. She was scheduled to give four tours that day and was told another one had been added to the schedule.
Posey was unsuspectingly cleaning the football rings when she spotted her engagement ring in the mix. Clayton came out of hiding at that point and proposed. Take notes guys. Clayton put a lot of thought into this one, and if your girlfriend is a huge sports fan, something like this could go a long way. Clayton did mention that he also snagged on of Saban’s Oatmeal Creme Pies from his famous stash of snacks. I wonder how coach feels about this revelation.
