Alabama x Grateful Dead Basketball Bears Hoodie

Officially licensed by the University of Alabama and Grateful Dead - available exclusively through Class Trip.

On May 17, 1977, the Grateful Dead rolled into Tuscaloosa and turned the University of Alabama’s Memorial Coliseum into something far beyond a standard concert venue. As part of their legendary ’77 tour, they delivered a show packed with fan favorites like Scarlet Begonias and Terrapin Station, pulling in students and Deadheads from all over the Southeast. The air was electric by the time the first notes hit—anticipation giving way to the kind of freewheeling, immersive experience that made Dead shows feel like more than just music. Much like a big Crimson Tide football game, the night was unpredictable, full of twists, turns, and those moments of collective euphoria. The band’s improvisational magic resonated with a crowd that knew something about pride, passion, and celebrating the moment. That night wasn’t just another stop on the tour; it was a bridge between cultures—between Deadheads and athletes, between free spirits and college traditions. The energy of that show still lingers, a moment in time where music and school spirit collided in the best possible way.
