Every teenager in the world has been embarrassed by their parents at least once in their life — but it's a two-way street.
That much was evident on National Signing Day in America, where talented high school seniors have their first chance to officially sign a binding letter of intent to play sport for a college of their choosing.
The mother of football player Jacob Copeland — a four-star wide receiver from Pensacola, Florida — was hoping Thursday would be one of the proudest days of her life when her son committed to the first step of his college career, news.com.au reports.
But she was wrong.
Sitting on Copeland's right as he prepared to announce his decision, mum was decked out in an Alabama jumper and a Tennessee hat, hoping he'd pick either the Crimson Tide or the Volunteers.
