I never saw this as a school endorsed thing or even a fanbase thing. It is the ones belittling it, especially from Bama fans, that is disheartening. They feel now is the time to make fun of something that is pretty tragic for our school. I hope by some possibility there isn't retaliation, but just like you all have insensitive pricks on your side, we got them on ours as well.

It's a fine line... I can see how if the situation was reversed, and it happened at Alabama, I would at least want Auburn fans to feel the same loss for something that was such an iconic symbol of good times. It represented what was good and fun about college football for you, and a man who didn't even go to college would have no respect for that.

At this point, I don't know what Alabama fans could do to try to make something right for the sake of the tradition between the two schools, but when people say all Auburn wants is revenge, it makes me ill. Everyone knows that if someone takes revenge, we are headed down a road of reciprocating vandalism, probably by people who never went to either school.
