The Samford Game

Not all games nor Tiger Tail Team experiences are created equally. Some are filled with excitement and peril. Others are all about the people you meet along the way. This trip pales in comparison to most of the others. For all of us, it was pretty much an off day. With the weekend ahead of us and the one we just left behind it was probably a...

The Ole Miss Game

Some trips are more entertaining than others. This was one of the more entertaining trips...at least, it was for us. But before we begin, let's set up the story...

Our game week began early as the team and the Van made an appearance at Hunter Street Baptist Church in Hoover for a "trunk or treat" event last Wednesday. We'd...

Earlier in the week, we decided that due to time constraints, logistics, and common sense, the Tiger Tail Team van would remain in Birmingham. Just because the van is absent does not mean it's not a Tiger Tail Team trip. It just means we are going...

The Florida Game

We originally planned to leave Friday afternoon to attend all of Coach Barbee’s festivities at the Auburn Arena. In spite of our best intentions and plans, we were regulated to an early Saturday morning start. Your Tiger Tail Team crew for this game included Michael, Jason, JP, and our special guest “documentary guy” Ryan. Followers of the...

The Arkansas Game

Some trips almost get derailed before they even start. A plan was hatched before/during/after the South Carolina game to take the Tiger Tail Team Van to Fayetteville, Arkansas, for maybe the last time for a while. (Auburn looks poised to move to the SEC East if Missouri is added as the 14th team). On Thursday morning, the expected team shrunk...

The South Carolina Game

Our trip over to South Carolina was largely uneventful save a few run ins with various localities’ locals. The initial plan called for us to get out of Birmingham sometime in the early afternoon on Friday. It didn’t happen. Instead, we left Birmingham shortly before 7 P.M. after gassing our girl up and stopping at a choke and puke to get...

The Florida Atlantic Game

This week’s game featured a short trip to God’s Country sandwiched between visits to the Palmetto State. It was also Auburn’s first night game. The past three weeks, Auburn has suffered through the dreaded 11 a.m. games. It has made life rough on us and our ability to tailgate. The late start time meant the Tiger Tail Team would get to sleep...

The Clemson Road Trip

Our first real road trip in the Tiger Tail Van was to Clemson. Driving to Auburn does not count as a road trip. Every time we drive down there it is more like going home. For this trip we decided to take along a chauffeur to handle the long drive, Atlanta traffic and the constant flashing lights from cameras on the interstate. Since none of us...

The Mississippi State Game

There is no such thing as a “dull” or “oridinary” trip in the Tiger Tail Van. Somethings always bound to go wrong. This last Saturday morning was no exception and at times things looked bleak. But like a stereotypical 80’s sitcom, a problem arose, got worse, and was resolved all within thirty...
