Replanting of Auburn's Oaks
As you all know, we live in Auburn, Alabama home to Auburn University. I believe that I’ve mentioned that we ( Honey & I) are also alumni of Auburn University. Through out the college campuses around the country, all are steeped in tradition and Auburn University is no different. Our beloved tradition of rolling the Auburn Oaks with toilet paper has been around long before my days as a student. In 2010, Auburn won it’s second National Championship and it was a grand day! But shortly after the win, a person that I will leave nameless poisoned those 83-85+ year old oak trees. We, the Auburn Family felt the loss in such a way that can not be described or explain. Countless attempts to save our trees were made but, we all knew after reading about Spike 80 ( the poison) that those attempts would not be enough.
