Wear an Auburn shirt on The Price Is Right and you will win big. In 2005, it was Auburn student Chase Gallimore. In 2012, it was Auburn fan Brenda from Eclectic (Drew Carey: “They raise’em smart at Auburn.“) Thursday, it was AU grad and Auburn resident Megan Sumners, who won a Volkswagen Jetta on the […]

Apparently there’s this thing that lonely teenagers from Ireland and England and places like that do, where they read words aloud in front of their webcams so lonely American teenagers on Tumblr or something can hear how they talk.

For 2012 Auburn graduate Anna Larson, moving to California wasn’t just the next step in her post-college career.  It was the only step. “I knew that I wanted to cut trailers, but there’s not been a lot of opportunity for this outside LA and New York,” Larson said. “It was a really big decision and […]

UPDATE: She’s not just posing in it, she’s out and about wearing it in actual England!!! Here she is somewhere in actual England, after taking her cat and dog to the vet. … Auburn Athletic Director Jay Jacobs is a man of his word. He said he’d send Dee Ford some Auburn stuff, and he […]

The final play of the Iron Bowl is going to inspire young artists for years: writers, film makers, painters, French surrealists, all sorts. Birmingham first-grader Winston Martin expressed his bulletin board-worthy feelings for the game in (Rod Bramblett’s) words.
