A crowd favorite for Crimson Tide fans last season was back in Title Town on Thursday as Amari Cooper was on hand for the opening ceremonies for the brand new Nike Factory Outlet Store in Tuscaloosa, Al.
Sitting only one mile from the University of Alabama campus, a release from Nike says that the store is the brand’s first retail destination in a college town.
“Athletics are such an important part of the history and tradition in Tuscaloosa,” said Zoe Krislock, vice president of Nike Factory Stores North America. “We believe this retail space in the heart of T-Town will be an ideal complement to a city so deeply connected to inspiring, training and celebrating athletes.
