VIDEO: Someone Brought a Kangaroo to the Iron Bowl and We Have Questions
By Sean Facey
Of all the things to bring to a college football game, this is by far the craziest. Someone literally brought a pet kangaroo to the Iron Bowl between Alabama and Auburn. Because of course they did.

There are so many questions worth asking right now. Where did they get it? Why did they bring it? Is this the first time this kangaroo has been to a sporting event? Is it a service animal? We need to know.
Maybe it's a good luck charm... or something? Who knows. At the very least, we can tell based on the color scheme of its pouch that it's a War Eagle fan.
If you asked “Guess what I saw at the Iron Bowl today?” baby kangaroo doesn’t make my top 100

Security must have gotten a real kick out of this. Trying to sort out what the proper protocol is to deal with a fan who brought a living, breathing pet kangaroo with them to the gate is probably pretty difficult.
Regardless of why it's there, though, whichever fans are lucky enough to sit next to it during the game will get a double feature of quality college football and intriguing marsupial-watching.
