Book Clubs

Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer is a book not just for fans, but for anyone curious about the phenomenon of sports fanaticism. Don’t take our word for it: have a listen to this review by Maureen Corrigan, the book critic for NPR’s "Fresh Air," who is decidedly not a sports fan but who called RJYH "thoroughly fun to read."

If you’re a fan, or simply someone who has to live or work with fans, RJYH is an entertaining way to understand the power of sports to make people behave in strange ways. The book is being taught or has been taught in sociology and psychology classes at the University of Kentucky, Furman University, University of Utah and Syracuse University.

We believe that book club gatherings about Rammer Jammer should be as much fun as the book itself. You get the barbecue, and we’ll supply a jar of Bama Bombs, a reader’s guide and a selection of recommended articles on the research on understanding the phenomenon of sports fans. We'll even forward the mixing instructions for a batch of Pink Panty Pulldowns, though we take no responsibility for any misbehavior that occurs afterwards.  If circumstances allow, Warren is happy to join your book club by speaker phone for half an hour.
