Patients at Children’s of Alabama in Birmingham got a special surprise on Tuesday when the University of Alabama and Auburn University mascots paid a visit.

The visit by Big Al and Aubie, who were also joined by cheerleaders from the University of Alabama, coincides with the annual kickoff of Wells Fargo’s “Picks for Kids” program.

Going into its seventh consecutive year, “Picks for Kids” has raised over $216,000 for helping ill and injured children at the Alabama hospital.
