One of my absolute favorite experiences of all times is going to Auburn Football Games. Unless you have experienced it, there is really no way to describe it. My favorite games are those night games after the weather has gotten cooler, being under the lights, watching the Eagle soar around the field and cheering that first kick off. Wow - gives me chills.Garet and I have not been able to attend a game in a couple of years, but we so want to change that this year. Leave a comment and let me know what games you are going to be at this fall - you know me, I want to see everyone that I possibly can. I am long overdue on a good tailgate!

We are going to all of them except probably Homecoming. We sure hope that we can get together with you and tailgate...WAR EAGLE!!!
Cindy and I are not planning to attend any home games this year. Brad, Chad and I are planning to make the trip to West Virginia for the WVU game in October (if we can get tickets). Let me know if you or Garet want to make that trip with us.
I don't think that I have any trips to Auburn in my future! However, you are always welcome to come to Chicago and join me and the local Alabama alumni at the Houdstooth in Wrigleyville to watch the games. You wouldn't be the only Auburn fan...
Jaime Wright and I were talking that it's been a long time since we've been to Tuscaloosa for a game, so I know what you are talking about.
Thanks for your note last night on Facebook. I really appreciate it.
No specific plans here either, but we haven't been to any games in a few years either! Just let us know the plans and we will definitely try to be on board!
We usually don't know if we're going to go until the week of the game when someone offers us tickets. But right now I think we are tentatively planning on the Southern Miss game and maybe one other one later in the year.
We are planning to go to the Arkansas game and also to Homecoming on November 8th. That one especially excites me since it is the Alumni Band game. Dan is also hoping to catch the Vandy game in Nashville and Southern Miss over Labor Day! It has been way too long for us. We are ready for some Auburn football excitement!
Though this doesn't really go with the point of your post, I was looking at heading to Morgantown for the W.Va. game - until I saw the cheapest tickets were $200/seat (been sold out for awhile).
So yeah, looks like no game for this year:(
I will of course be watching each one - and maybe I'll figure out a way to make it to the national championship game:)

Oh, so many choices.
The thought of getting together with Brad, Chad & Heth again put a smile on my face - especially if my brother was at the game as well! Not sure if we can make it up that far though.
Dan is tempting us with the Vandy game, but I also really want to get down to the plains into a sea of orange and blue...
Oh, I'll have to figure something out soon!

we have Nashville AU friends that have already invited us to meet up with them in Nashville (their brand new baby will be in tow) -- maybe that would be a good meeting place for us all...
...plus, like I said, if anyone just wants to have a get-together for a big game, our house might be a good central location for a cook out and watching the game!
Holly and I are going to the Arkansas game. Let us know if you (or any of the rest of the gang) are going to be in town that weekend.

Jesse!! So glad you are coming south for a game! We might have to try to make that game - it's Levi's 3rd birthday that day, so we'll have to see what we can do...maybe we'll bring him along!
