\"Yankee\"<\/center><\/p>\n

Yes, a few more Auburn football things. But, hey, we’re about to celebrate the three-week anniversary of the national championship game. You don’t get to do that every day. This poster is on the side of Toomer’s Drugs. It’s prettier because she’s standing there.<\/p>\n

\"TigerRobes\"<\/center><\/p>\n

They weren’t together — but I think they knew each other. And they shared the same bad taste in robes. What you can’t see well in this picture are the tails.<\/p>\n

\"Washer\"<\/center><\/p>\n

You know it is serious when they say it in three languages.<\/p>\n

\"Cart\"<\/center><\/p>\n

I said on Twitter that this car was from the future. One friend said if it didn’t fly I could keep it. Another friend said it looked like robbers from the future had stripped it down. I think we were each right.<\/p>\n

\"Beard-Eaves-Memorial\"<\/center><\/p>\n

This sticker is on the hardwood at Beard-Eaves-Memorial Coliseum. Wally Tinker<\/a>, the man that sunk the first official basket, also sank the last. He’s got a great story. The Yankee and I saw the last official athletic event in the place. <\/p>\n

Some of the players and coaches miss the old venue, but fans aren’t especially nostalgic about the imminent demise of Beard-Eaves-Memorial. It will be odd when there’s nothing to call by that name any more, but the new Auburn Arena is nice, and it is time.<\/p>\n

If they are smart and sell seats out of the old coliseum we’re buying a row of them. End of story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
