Help me out with this one - why is there a huge tiger paw in the middle of the road there? Doesn't Auburn have enough logos/mascots without using one of the most recognizable logos in college football?
I think it would have been way more "Auburn" to put the interlocking AU there, which is another great logo, instead of a tiger paw that looks suspiciously like some other team's logo?
Was it payback for using your old uniforms, stealing Heisman and Riggs, copying Samford Hall (loosely), etc?
I was down there Saturday, and it looks pretty great, by the way.

Toomer's Corner should be renamed to Updyke's Bitch.

It looks nothing like Clemson's logo.

They don't care about what you think

I hear they're building a lake, too.

It's not new. Not as popular as the AU, but not new.

Agreed

I think it's safe to say when designing Toomers, sticking it to Clemson wasn't discussed.

Taters. Help me out with this one here. Do Clemson fans/alumni still donate potatoes to the university?

Yeah, 2 orange paws look nothing alike.

A Clemson fan talking about Auburn copying their shite, that's funny.

Not needed when you have a creepy tiger mascot

We would never do that.

Half of the pics in your link are Clemson's paw. You kind of made my point. Even Google doesn't know there's an Auburn paw.
I'm no Auburn expert, but I'm almost positive Toomer's has been around longer than 1989 or whenever that homemade paw was painted. Certainly longer than 2015 when the Clemson paw was put in permanently.

Goddamn that thing is creepy and disturbing. Looks like a homeless person on a three day meth bender. Can you imagine if that mascot peered into your living room window?
