BIRMINGHAM (AP) — Alabama’s two U.S. senators kept their bet with Louisiana’s senators and wore purple ties in the U.S. Senate chamber.
The senators had a bet on Saturday’s LSU-Alabama football game, with the losers having to wear the other team’s colors on the Senate floor.
Sen. Richard Shelby, who lives in Tuscaloosa, says he’d never worn a purple tie before.
