If you’ve ever wondered what former Alabama head coach Nick Saban was going to get up to in retirement, this offseason has provided plenty of insight.
From helping out with ESPN’s NFL Draft coverage to taking it all in during The Masters at Augusta National Golf Club all the way to beaching it up in Florida, Saban has had the time of his life since he called it quits in Tuscaloosa.
But the latest escapade that the best to ever do it enjoyed might have just been the best one yet.
In a photo shared to social media by his daughter Kristen, Saban was seen getting the chance to enjoy a concert from one of the greatest rock bands in American history, the Rolling Stones.

Saban has long been an avid fan of the Stones, last year at SEC Media Days in Nashville sharing the fact that him and Miss Terry always listen to the iconic ‘Gimme Shelter’ on the way home from games:
Does Nick Saban have a pregame hype playlist?
"I don't understand this question.."
"I don't really listen to music before the game, we always play Gimme Shelter going home after the game.." @wsfa12news pic.twitter.com/3sWG9WCSvz

Getting to head to a concert of one of his favorite bands during the height of recruiting season is probably not something that Nick Saban ever imagined.
But the GOAT is clearly enjoying his well-earned time off.
