Van Allen Plexico managed to attend Auburn (and score student football tickets) for some portion of every year between 1986 and 1996. He realizes that’s probably not something one should brag about, but hey. He teaches college near St Louis (because ten years as a student was somehow just not enough time to spend at school) and writes and edits for a variety of publishers. Find links to his various projects at www.plexico.net.
John Ringer graduated from Auburn in 1991 (which may be the greatest time ever to be an Auburn student – SEC titles in 1987, 88 and 89 and the 1989 Iron Bowl). His family has had season tickets every year since well before he was born and he grew up wandering around Jordan-Hare on game days. He currently lives in Richmond, Virginia where he spends way too much time reading about college football on the internet and teaching his children to love Auburn football.

The opening of this podcast makes me feel good. Thank you. Did you have to pay to use the Jim Fyffe clip?
Under 30 seconds is considered “fair use.” That’s definitely under 30 seconds.
Some would argue that’s not so, but it’s a generally recognized legal point. I’ll let y’all know if we receive a C&D letter.
I worked for a magazine once where we, or our lawyers, grappled with the fair use question over our using slightly doctored images of well-known cartoon characters on the cover. They ultimately decided we were OK. Didn’t much matter, as the mag closed shortly anyway. Best job I ever had, though. Ah, the dot-com boom and bust. Keep up the good work, guys, and thanks for not putting Petrino on your new-coach list.
Never! We roasted him pretty good in episode 1.
I’ve been looking for a good AU Football podcast. Looks like I found it. Thanks guys!
