Snag a selfie with national championship trophy at Gwinnett Walmart

Before the College Football Playoff National Championship trophy is awarded to the Georgia Bulldogs or Alabama Crimson Tide, you can see it up close and personal at a Suwanee Walmart.

The trophy will make a stop at the store at 3245 Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road on Friday, Jan. 5 from noon to 2 p.m. You can look at it and take photos with it, but please do not touch the 24-karat gold plated tribute to football glory. Touching or holding the trophy will not be allowed, a Walmart spokeswoman said.
