What do they use this for? Is this literally a room that Bo, Pat and Cam can just exclusively hang out in? Just curious, got to go in it today and wish I would have asked.

I have always assumed that it was a room for VIP events for the high level donors.

"Members of the Heisman Society have donated $250,000 or more outright and outside of any ticket contributions. Only 30 donors make up this elite society and the benefits include cocktail events before home games and All-American Society events. Members are invited to all athletic facility dedications, receive an annual recognition gift and their names are published in the Tiger Roar magazine, football game programs and on the video board."

Its pretty small, it just doesn't seem big enough for more than about 10 people in there. Which is why I wondered what its purpose was.

I think it's used as a place for Gus to meet with recruits after games

The one in the Tigers Den in Jordan Hare?
Got nothing to do with the Heisman winners or the Heisman Society seating section below the press box.
It's a private room where they try to seal the deal with recruits to commit or donors contemplating a big or bigger donation.
It's all fun and games until they bring out the paperwork.....
Have had a couple of meetings in there....all expensive.

It also used to be a big recruiting tool as well. Sue Locklar would tell the recruits, "Here's the Heisman Room. It's the only one in the state of Alabama."

It would be awesome too if there was a room exclusively for Pat, Bo, and Cam to hangout in when they were in Auburn.
