Tram Sessions (November 11, 1898 – January 24, 1984) was an American football center for the Alabama Crimson Tide of the University of Alabama. Sessions was selected All-Southern thrice. Sessions was the first secretary-treasurer of the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame.[1] After a long hiatus, he attempted to renew the Alabama–Auburn rivalry by sponsoring a bill for the purpose in 1945. The bill failed as the state senate shot it down 21 to 9,[2] but the rivalry renewed within the next five years.[3]
