Larry's Bio
Larry Burton lives in Panama City Beach, Florida and is active in many pursuits and hobbies. Key among them are Alabama Football, SEC football, ALL College Football, Nascar, Scouting, Diving, Boating and Travel. The picture is of Larry at his favorite place, his Tiki Bar at the pool.
This season he joins TouchdownAlabama.net as a fully press credentialed member and will be writing weekly columns for them and covering games from the press box.
Larry lives with his wife, son and Pug (Baccardi the Wonder Dog)... Besides being a Community Leader here on BleacherReport.com, he's a moderator at WWW.rollcrimsontide,com and a member of the rowdy bunch at www.crimsontidefans@googlegroups.com , (where the motto is "Wear a Cup"). He served several terms as a director in the Red Elephant Club and loves to meet with the Crimson Tide coaches and administrators. His Bama years were from 1976 to 1981 during the back to back National Championship years!
Here on Bleacher Report he is the number one Alabama football writer, number one SEC writer and college football's number one writer.
He is the owner of a nationally recognized employment and recruiting agency, Snelling Personnel in Panama City. He also does contract work for branches of the U.S. Military and is a proud patriot.
He is a syndicated columnist and has had articles on CBS Sports Online, Fox Sports, BamaMag.com, The University of Georgia's Dawg Post print and internet magazine, Scout.com, Rivals and had an article discussed on ESPN-U. He has one article hit over 100,000 times, and had over 36,000 hits on Bleacherreport.com with just one article. He's done radio interviews and has been sought out to speak to groups as well.
When not attending games in person, most football Saturdays are spent with friends at the famous "Tiki Bar" in his backyard. Home of many big Bama parties and events. If you're a Tide fan or just a good sport, give him a call if you're in Panama City Beach and stop by for a drink on him.
