Fantastic read: LINK

Completely embarrassing but the story must be told. Personally, I think it would be a good idea to move Auburn to the East and rotate the rivalry to every 2 or 4 years but whatever... it's not up to me and I don't live in Alabama anymore.

Pretty good read, and I usually like Godfrey, but man he messed up the street names.

Good read.

I never want to be a cop, but holy shite, those dudes could write a good book just from football game stories.

frick no. Go do a little research on what goes on around any of the biggest sporting events in the country after a huge win. Reaction to an Iron Bowl is not unlike a World Series or NBA championship and no less important to the fan bases. Tuscaloosa is tame by comparison. When we start rioting and burning vehicles after a win, I'll get embarrassed.

I'm more embarrassed by the folks sitting on the 50 yard line.

Pretty tame, actually, and no different than ANY other rivalry game in the P5.
