Auburn V Alabama 2...Mike, I need to add another!!!!<br />Auburn V Alabama 2001 in Auburn<br />Auburn lost, but let me tell you what I remember most. This was the first AU/AL game after Sept. 11. The bands performed a joint patriotic show. First, I am a fan of the bands at both universities...(since band paid my scholarship at USM!!!) AND I am sucker for patriotic music. They had t-shirts made that said 'The only thing that can bring Auburn and ALabama together...Sept. 11'<br />It was a great moment. Til the end of the game.!<br />ChristyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12370444.post-77198467112327104562009-11-02T18:38:58.882-08:002009-11-02T18:38:58.882-08:00I have lots of favorites.

I remember Bo Jackson running up and down the superdome at will, but what I MOST remember is being there with all my grandparents, mom, dad, and sister. My grandparents drove me home and I went to school the next day. No one else had to!!! Auburn did win, by the way!<br /><br />2. Southern Miss vs LSU 1994- I was in the band, sitting in the endzone of Death Valley when USM kicked the field goal that sealed Curly Hullman's fate. I had my eyes covered and couldn't believe we won!!!I remember Mr. Moser telling us to run to the bus.<br /><br />3. Auburn V Georgia 2004<br />This was Auburn's year after jetgate. I love the atmosphere of the Auburn/UGA game. This particular game was the 'ESPN Gameday Game'. I went to this game with my best friend, and watched Cadillac and Ronnie Brown run all over the place. Auburn went undefeated that year,but we didn't get a chance to play for the National Championship. As is our mantra, I believe in Auburn and love it- never meant more than it did that year.<br /><br />I LOVE to read your football posts. I love football more than most girls my age, and my kiddos that are football players are amazed at my ability to discuss plays with them, etc. I just love it!!!<br /><br />I remember the Tiffin kick. :)<br /><br />ChristyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12370444.post-40804479059853498632009-10-31T07:16:00.712-07:002009-10-31T07:16:00.712-07:00Mike, I can agree whole-heartedly with what you...Mike, I can agree whole-heartedly with what you've written. I love football, too. But I can tell you more about the people I was with than the games themselves. <br /><br />Growing up, the highlight every year was flying down to Texas for Christmas and then going to a Cotton Bowl or Sun bowl game with family and friends. Or sitting in in Lubbock, TX watching Tech and TCU play to a TIE in FREEZING weather, but my sweetie was beside me. Or, talking with my dad on the phone after every Texas Tech football game...except last Saturday night. Go figure out that one!<br /><br />Those kind of memories are stuck in my head forever. Scores of games...probably not. Who I was with...absolutely.Kelly Bryantnoreply@blogger.com
