The boys from Tuscaloosa are coming to the nation’s capital. The 2010 BCS national champions are set to travel to Washington D.C. this Monday morning. For all you tourists in D.C., get your cameras ready because the team will be traveling all throughout the city visiting some of the historical sites and monuments to include the U.S. Capitol and the Air & Space museum. The team will also make a visit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to attend a congratulatory gala hosted by President Obama as it is customary for the President to personally congratulate the national champs.
The ceremony will take place in the Rose Garden with Obama set to say some words praising the team and its success. Afterwards, the Tide will get a personal tour of the White House and will then participate in a volunteer project with area kids who will also attend the celebratory event.
Take advantage of the Tide being in town because this will be a quick trip for some of the former players as they must return to Tuscaloosa for Pro Day which is scheduled for Wednesday.
