This video gave me so much pride it's ridiculous. Whether or not we win the game Saturday, I'm still proud of what these seniors and team accomplished. Let's just hope we can send them out with a BANGBANGBANGBANG
Edit: Was dissappointed KICK 6 wasn't in the video. What's your favorite memory of beating the bad guys?

Great video. It woulda been nice to end it with the Kick Six.
My favorites are: Nix to Sanders, Tre Smith, and Bo over the top.

I have to admit, I was at the 2009 Iron Bowl with my 13 year old son who has wants to attend Auburn. It was his first Iron Bowl with me and Auburn was doing everything we could to pull the upset. I was pulling for Auburn harder then than I ever have.
I so wanted him to be able to say he was at that game when Auburn spoiled Bama's National Championship hope. But we all know that GMac put on the drive at the end and ended it.
So close and I had dug in on that one.
So many fun and not so fun games to think about

I was at the '09 game, too. My best friend uppercutted me with excitement after the long TD to Zachery. I think I developed clinical depression after Upchurch's Td

Every Iron Bowl win is precious, but being present for Bo Over The Top, First Time Ever, 11-0, and The Kick Six will always be special.

I was at every IB from 1987-2001. Lot of great and painful memories.
We will see how this year shapes up.
I think we coming and Bama better be ready for all 12 rounds.

That's because this video came out last year prior to the Iron Bowl.
I remember getting tickets with another Auburn friend to go to the 2010 Iron Bowl - we sat in the Greek section of the Bama student section with mutual friends who went to school there, who became increasingly insufferable when they got up by several scores. Then, well, the Camback happened. I just remember looking up and watching red and white shakers thrown in disgust shower from the stands overhead while Auburn played the reverse rammer jammer.
The next game I went to with that friend was last years Iron Bowl. He's apparently good luck to watch games with.

Iron Bowl games I was at that are memorable.
2000 - The sleet bowl. For the first time in the modern era, the Auburn Tigers came to Tuscaloosa. Auburn kicked three field goals to beat Alabama 9-0. Sleet fell during much of the game.
2006 - Fear the Thumb. Was at that game with my dad sitting in the upper deck.
2009 - Really thought we were going to win that game. Felt my heart ripped out at the end.
2013 - Kick Six. Very bitter sweet moment considering some awful news I received earlier that day.
I'm sure there are other games like '95 I was at, but nothing really stands out.

My favorite is probably 2002. It was my then 6 year old son's first Iron Bowl and away game. Nobody gave Auburn a chance and we somehow won with the 3rd string tailback.

That was a fun Iron Bowl even though we lost. Bama got close to losing a few that year.

Of the ones I have been to:
2013 Kick Six - has to be one of the best all time sports moments; to say you were there just makes it that much sweeter.
1997 - Beat Bama 18-17, win the west for the first trip to Atlanta.
2003? Go Crazy Cadillac - After the high expectations coming in and Jetgate crap as well as coming off back to back losses to Ole Miss and UGA, no one knew what to expect. Would the team hang it up, would the coaches mail it in? A 75 yard TD run to open the game really set the tone.

For me personally... 1997, 2005, and 2006 stand out they I was fortunate enough to attend.
2002 will always stand out to me bc no one gave us a shot in hell... and we came out and punched them in the mouth.

It was funny, had more than one Bama fan come up to me and just hope "auburn could make it a game"...very satisfying win, almost better than being there in 2010.

One of my favorite IB memories was standing in the student section with my cousin, watching Caddy run the first play of the game 80 yards for a touchdown. I started screaming "He's GONE HE'S GONE. TOUCHDOWN TOUCHDOWN" before Caddy even made his cut to the side lines. Somehow I just knew he was taking it to the house. About five seconds later everyone around me went crazy when he separated from the defender.

2009 was such a fun game because of the way it unfolded. Just gave Alabama too much time and couldn't defend Julio over the middle on the last drive. To hear Auburn fans stay after that game and chant it's Great to be an Auburn Tiger was chilling

One of my biggest regrets as a fan was leaving right after the game and not being there to be a part of that.

I was out on the concourse when it broke out.. Went back to my seat when I heard it

quote:it really was. We only had 50 something scholarship players at that time with only 3 LBs on the roster, one being a true freshman. Walk ons were playing on special teams. We gave them everything we had and should have won, but we ran out of gas at the end. Proud of that team
