You can normally follow a student into the the basement lab entrance of Rouse. Best building to try to use the facilities in during the hot months since they have to keep it so cold. Alot of lab work is scheduled during the weekend...just don't go into any of the labs. The loading dock entrance of the chem building is normally open too, due to deliveries.

I also blame Auburn students and residents.

The fact that fricking Pieology is still open in possibly the premiere bar location in Auburn is a travesty and an embarrassment.

Great stadium experience. They'll be full of themselves and you'll have to deal with being called a "corn dog" over and over, but once in the stadium you'll have a good time.

I still have nightmares about not being able to find my class in that building. Of course, in the dream, it was for the final exam and I'd never been to the class previously.

That dream is probably not to far from the truth unfortunately.

Go to The Hound, make sure you are in 30 minuets before kick to see the Eagle fly.

Corn Dog and Tiger Bait are usually meant in good fun at both schools.

Usually.

As an LSU fan who has been attending LSU road games there for yrs, I always bring a small bar bq grill.There are lots of great places under the trees and alongside buildings close to the stadium. Fire extinguisher optional.

Penicillin in case you hook up with an AU co-ed.

I think this is a pretty lame description. My daughter is an AU grad so I have been to several games. They are often drunk and violent. I have had my car vandalized, my wife threatened...my wife, not my life. Before the game they are all "ya'll are so sweet..bless your hearts." After the game they are like wet goblins. So, buena suerte.

The Eagle is one of the best things in all of sports. Up there with singing You'll Never Walk Alone in Liverpool, 7th inning at Wrigley, Sweet Caroline at Fenway.

Not sure I agree. Well actually, sure I disagree. That eagle stuff just doesn’t make sense or appeal to me. But then again neither does papering ones own trees.

AU fans are no different than any others. I’ve seen drunk frat boys at nearly every school I’ve been to. Believe it or not, the best time I’ve ever had at a non-neutral site was LSU. Those Cajuns are a fun group. The worst experience is a tie between UT and USCe, where I saw UGA fans openly cussed at by drunk kids.

As long as there’s an AU, I’ll despise them. Any group of people who can idolize $cam Newton and nick fairley deserve all of the bad that can befall them.

Still hurts, does it? Don't worry.. maybe one day you guys can win a national title and finally move on from the trauma those two gave you.

We know, as you stated in the past "I laugh every time I read the obituary of an Auburn fan"

You definitely have your priorities straight in life...

How in the hell is that our fault? We all want a new bar to open up, and we were hoping that halftime would eventually fill that role but it didn't end up panning out. The rotation of Bourbon, Q's, and Sky has certainly gotten old for most students and I think we'd all be in favor of new bars opening up. Only reason I didn't mention 1716 is because the specials there aren't good enough to justify the strange crowd it attracts and Moe's is for fifth years.

Do they still teach you to remember the quadrants with the "1 is closest to the stadium, because we're #1 in football. 2 is closest to the library, because that's the second place you go to study. 3 is closest to Foy, because there are 3 letters in Foy"?

My problem was, the room numbers were floor-quadrant-number instead of quadrant-floor-number. That never made sense.

Someone’s gotta be eating crappy pizza for it to still be open.
