The degree to which this psychedelically titillating showcase by experimental New York rockers Battles might N exactly be SFW will depend on whether your boss frowns on American Apparel models licking doorknobs, roller skate wheels, chocolate ice cream cones (while taking a bath), lamps, pine cones, or gardenia blossoms.
But if you can’t wait to get home, and if you do catch any heat for it, just assure The Man that you were only interested in the split second clip at 1:12, and the three seconds from 1:25 to 128, which appear to show a dude in an old Auburn (Dameyune Craig) jersey holding a beer bong and talking on a cell phone.
I’m sure he’ll be fine with it.
Catch it?
Best Explanation? Sex appeal. Thematic consistency. Auburn jerseys are hot. It just makes sense.

This is why I check The War Eagle Reader every day. I like Battles — they are hit or miss — and really dig Matias Aguayo’s work. This song and video is killer, but the Dameyune Craig jersey sets it over the top. He’s one of my favorite Auburn players ever. Can you imagine him in Malzahn’s offense? War Battles Eagle! TWER I bow down to you.
Thanks Elcarg, that means a lot.
That is clearly a Daniel Cobb jersey… Auburn’s second greatest 16. D Craig would’ve had shadowbox numbers.
That’s what I would have thought, but not necessarily:

No, I mean that is ACTUALLY Daniel Cobb in the video.
🙂
My bad, then yes, a Daniel Cobb jersey. So Cobb.
There’s also an episode of How I Met Your Mother where Marshall wears an old Aubie T-shirt (and it’s not the one of the AU you have on here, I actually googled Aubie T-Shirt Marshall and your website came up, haha) but it’s a white ringer t-shirt and a very faded old Aubie (with the cap on).
Everyone secretly loves Auburn and should admit it and quit trying to slip it in to their TV shows & videos 🙂 War Eagle
