It's a learning opportunity for the younger generation of Auburn fans to learn all about the storied history of Legion Field: The Old Grey Lady aka The Football Capital of the South and Auburn's 15-32 record against Bama there.

Also Auburn fans will be able to show their kids what a real coach looks like.
