War Eagle!!!! Go Auburn!!!!!!

Just a little trivia for all the Auburn football fans. Ever wonder how the Tiger Walk was started? The tradition started in the early 1960's. Two hours before kickoff of every home football game, Auburn fans will line up along Donahue Drive to show their support for the Auburn football team as they walk from Sewell Hall to Jordan-Hare Stadium. It has become so popular it has been listed on the players' game weekend itinereary. The largest Tiger Walk to date was on December 2, 1989 before the first ever home football game against rival Alabama. An estimated 20,000 fans packed the one block section of road leading to the stadium. Actually, many other schools have copied this tradition. So now you know how the tradition was started. WAR EAGLE!!!! GO AUBURN!!!!

Laura,

Went to high school in Columbus, GA a coons age ago. Lots of friends went to Auburn. Our family financial adviser is a war eagle alum. Our home is in Miss Delta, so we have a built-in appreciation for things south east.

Also have an appreciation for you taking  your time to comment on the crest foolishness we did earlier this last week. It was fun that you and so many others seemed to enjoy it.

Cheers...
