The Alabama fan who exposed himself and assaulted an LSU fan in a New Orleans fast food restaurant after the 2012 BCS National Championship game pled guilty to obscenity charges Tuesday.
Brian H. Downing, of Smith Station, Ala., agreed to plead guilty the morning he was supposed to appear in court for charges that carried heavy prison sentences, including 10 years in jail for sexual battery, according to reports.
Downing now faces up to two years in prison, but will not be required to register as a sex offender since the sexual battery charge was dropped.
The video that went viral after the Crimson Tide dominated the Tigers shows Downing pulling out his genitals and thrusting against a passed-out man in LSU attire.
Downing was initially arrested 10 days after the Jan. 19 incident.
His sentencing hearing is scheduled for Nov. 29.
