Alabama super fan Walt Gary died on Thursday night at the age of 36.
Gary, a Tuscaloosa native with down syndrome, became a fixture of the football program under former coach Gene Stallings, who was a father to a son with down syndrome and welcomed Gary to practices.
Under coach Nick Saban, Gary would visit with the team on Thursdays before games, greeting players and even giving Saban his score predictions.
"Walt is one of the people that, in my opinion, project the spirit and tradition of Alabama football," Saban told ESPN's College GameDay in 2018.
