An LSU fan tried to bribe Nick Saban with $5,000 if he would retire or stop beating LSU. This is a job for pathetic cat meme.
LSU fan offers Alabama's Nick Saban $5K to stop beating team
Alabama football coach Nick Saban has dominated the college football landscape for the last two decades. Some people are just waiting for him to retire. Others are willing to do as much as pay him to stop beating their favorite teams.
Saban spoke at the annual Nick’s Kids Foundation golf tournament Thursday at the Old Overton Golf Club in Vestavia Hills, Alabama. While speaking, Saban confirmed that he was approached by someone at this week’s SEC meetings in Destin, Florida offering him $5K to stop beating LSU.
According to one report, it was a Louisiana high school junior and LSU fan who snuck past security to make the offer to Saban.
“He made an offer for me to retire or come back to LSU, one or the other,” Saban said, via Chase Goodbread of The Tuscaloosa News. “But I think LSU has a good coach. They have a lot of good players. We’ve had a lot of competitive games with them, and I’m sure it’ll be no different in the future.”
Saban’s success at Alabama surely has many LSU and other non-Alabama fans throughout the SEC wishing the 70-year-old would call it quits.
But Saban likely won’t be retiring anytime soon after getting a contract extension through the 2028 season. The $5K offer is nothing compared to Saban’s current annual salary.
He’s won six national titles at Alabama, and seven overall. Saban’s first national championship win came while he was the head coach at LSU in 2003. In five seasons at LSU, Saban went 48-16. Since coming to Alabama in 2007, he has a 12-4 record against LSU.
But there is some hope for LSU fans. Head coach Brian Kelly is looking forward to the challenge of trying to beat Saban.
Kelly and the Tigers will have their next opportunity to do so when the Crimson Tide travel to Baton Rouge, Louisiana on Nov. 5.

Watching LSU fans on their hands and knees, begging Nick Saban not to beat them next season.
Watching LSU fans offer Nick Saban their life savings if he agrees not to beat them next season.
Watching LSU fans kidnap the Alabama mascot and hold him captive until Nick Saban agrees not to beat them next season.
Watching LSU fans claim they have Nick Saban nudes, and threaten to go public with them unless he agrees not to beat them next season.
$5000?????? Does the guy realize Nick Saban's contract is for an average of $10.6 MILLION per year?
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
This is one of the most ridiculous stories I've heard in quite some time, this guy is an idiot, $5,000 is a joke!
.....
CHALLENGE!
Extra thisistheshow bonus points if you find and prove the existence of a gofundme type campaign trying to raise enough money to actually mitigate Saban
Full disclosure: I don't knw if this exists
I'm sorry but I couldn't find anything. All I can offer you is this photo of a prank an LSU fan pulled back in 2012, they put a tail on Nick Saban's statue using scotch tape!
That’s like offering Double D a penny to stop being funny.
It’s utterly ridiculous lol
Ah yes, the LSU fans, God bless em.
Yes LSU fans, get those issues worked out and Nick will see you in November!
