The history buff in me can't stop wondering about this cocktail.

The only history I can find about this drink is it originated at the University of Alabama. I am very curious to know if there is a story behind this. It seems to be a drink or a shooter that everyone has heard of. If anyone has any info for me on this please do tell! (it seems I'm back at this blog thing again)
