Will not happen with LSU coming to town. Maybe a lesser opponent... someone who is a guaranteed victory. This game is too big for that nonsense.

Would love to see it happen though.

i don't buy into that. they are coming off a shitty offensive game and their o hasn't played up to par. Also most au fans seem to want burns.

They want Burns but clearly he must not be the better QB.

besides that, a comma isn't appropriate seeing as that isn't a list of people. It's people who are in a chain sort of like 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon.

I believe this to be false. I heard the e-mail was to alert the AU students and fans not to frick with the TGBFTL citing past incidents as reasons to avoid conflict with them at all costs


Aubbies now refer to Tiger Band as the TKOABFTL.

Good friend of mine that goes to Auburn just sent me a text telling me that an email was sent out asking them to NOT boo their own team when they come out on the field at this weekends game vs. LSU and Auburn


I will be at the game and I didn't get a text nor did I get an e-mail asking me not to boo Auburn. So I think it will be ok if I boo them on Saturday.

even if he is not he is the guy the fans want. todd has blown and if he makes some retarded mistake vs LSU you can beat the aubbies will start to boo and yell for burns.

imo its like this for every team. esp when your O is the one struggling.

but I have no doubt that if Auburn plays poorly on offense, the boo birds will come out.
I will be there and I will be booing with them.

Wrong, that was sent to only the football players.

I'll call my friend later today and ask him to forward me the email and then post it up (assuming he hasn't already deleted it)

Over text she did confirm that it basically asks the students not to boo the team and for them to treat the LSU fans with respect. Probably something similar to the Reveille ad last year from doresy and hester after "frick you spurrier/tebow/your 85 year old grandma"...


That's exactly what my friend told me. He said that it was sort of in response to them booing Cox off the field at the MSU game last year when he played poorly and they don't want it to happen again. He said he would forward me the email later today so whenever I get it I'll post it up (if you haven't already)

Got the email. As promised, here it is.

Dear Auburn Student,
I wanted to remind each of you about the importance of your support for our team and displaying character this weekend when L.S.U. fans and other guests arrive this weekend. First, please join me by agreeing to demonstrate your support for, and not criticism of, our football team. That means no booing! Remember, the team isn't trying to lose the game--the players work hard all spring and during fall camp to be ready to compete in the S.E.C. Let's show our appreciation for their hard work by encouraging them with loads enthusiasm! Secondly, help me show the world what I get to experience everyday: that Auburn men and women are special, dedicated, loyal, fun loving, bleed orange and blue, are compassionate, and demonstrate good will to others, even our competitors.

ESPN Game Day will be in town this weekend and we need everyone to come out and show them how much we support our team. Let's show Chris Fowler, Kirk Hebstreit, Lee Corso and Desmond Howard true fan support and loyalty for Auburn!

The nation will be watching the next two weeks (ESPN, CBS next week), and lets remember to have a great time, enjoy the weekend's activities, watch our language and behavior, and display class, taste, and character in everything we do. I have every confidence you will.

War Eagle!!




Dr. Johnny Green, '85
Office of the Dean of
Students
Suite 3248
Auburn University Student Center
Auburn Univ., AL 36849
Phone: 334-844-1304

And yes, the "no booing" part WAS bolded in the email

Does the email really say to encourage them with "loads enthusiasm"?

Nice . . .

LMAO. Can this truly be authentic? Would any competent college administrator ever send out such a pitiful e-mail?

Nice . . .

I would guess the dean of students has a secretary. he dictated the letter and the secretary goofed.

Probably. Let's all e-mail the bastard and ask him if he sent it.
