Harvey Updyke is turning in his grave.
Let the good times roll.
One of Auburn’s great traditions is ready for a comeback, as the university announced Tuesday the two main oak trees at Toomer’s Corner are ready to be rolled and be covered in toilet paper.
“The rolling of Toomer’s Corner is one of the nation’s top sports traditions,” Auburn president Christopher B. Roberts said in a statement. “Our fans have come together for decades on the corner of Magnolia and College to celebrate our big wins. In recent years, we continued our cherished tradition by rolling different trees, but I am very excited that the Auburn Family will once again be able to roll our most prominent trees.”
And that’s a good thing. Hey, it’s easy to mock, but let’s face it — a lot of college traditions are dumb on the surface. If folks care about it, that works for me.
Besides, fuck Harvey Updyke.
