A robust collection of magazines sends visitors a dual message: that you’re well read and that you have total confidence inm the load-bearing properties of your coffee table. Stay in the know and vouch for your furniture with today’s Groupon: for $25, you get a one-year subscription (12 issues) to Crimson Nation Illustrated (a $60 value).

Crimson Nation Illustrated celebrates the continuing tradition of Crimson Tide athletics via reporting, analysis, and photography spotlighting all 18 University of Alabama sports teams. Each month, an issue of Crimson Nation Illustrated plops on the doorsteps of subscribers with a friendly "hello" and a hearty "Roll Tide," then infiltrates their craniums with action-packed photography, statistics, recruiting schedules, and feature stories covering past and present athletes and staff.

Crimson-clad fanatics can relish in-depth game analysis, preview future sportscapades, and stay up-to-date on the latest Tide recruits. Professional commentary from sportswriters helps fans relive historic victories and classic achievements, such as the Tide's goal-line stand against Penn State in the 1979 Sugar Bowl, without which the 1980s would never have been possible. Health tips, tailgating recipes, and other content go beyond the action between the sidelines to enhance the fan experience even more effectively than an extralarge foam finger or indelible body paint.
