For the first time this year, Donald Trump is in the building for a college football game.

Trump began his day in Wisconsin with a rally that was supposed to take place outside but was moved indoors due to a lack of Secret Service staff.

He then flew to Alabama to watch the action between the top two SEC programs.

When Trump arrived, dozens of fans were in the concourse of Bryant-Denny Stadium to greet him.

Trump tossed merchandise to fans and many of them chanted “USA” as he entered the stadium.

Trump also received an ovation when he was shown on the Jumbotron.

Last year he attended a game between Iowa and Iowa State and another between Clemson and South Carolina. He also took part in a game at Alabama in 2019.

Given recent assassination attempts on the former president, including one on his own golf course, acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe was asked whether “(these) types of events are particularly concerning given that they number in the tens, if not hundreds, of thousands.” could be “of people” at Saturday's game. Bryant-Denny Stadium holds over 100,000 people.

But Rowe said his teams “know what they need to do to create a safe environment for our protectees.”

Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly arranged for a Trump troll banner to be displayed during the game.

A plane marked “Trump's punting in the second debate” is expected to fly over the stadium during the prime-time game, The Washington Post reported Saturday.

Alabama beat Georgia 27-24 in the SEC title game last season. That gave the Crimson Tide the No. 4 seed in the College Football Playoff and eliminated Georgia, which had been the No. 1 seed and had won 42 of its previous 43 games. History appeared to be repeating itself after Alabama took a 21-0 lead in the first quarter.
