or an Auburn football team get together. My best friend was a little vague on the description. He just described it as a specific time when all of the former players are invited back to attend a practice or function of some kind and he was invited by a former player and asked me to come along with him. Is anyone familiar with what he's referring to? I know that my mentor, who I've mentioned is a big scholarship donor & suite holder, told me many a times that all of the donors and suite holders were invited to a luncheon by Tubs to hang out with the coaches, but I'm not familiar with what Chizik does if he does anything at all. This might be something totally different giving former players an opportunity to come back and get affiliated with the current state of the program. I'm good friends with former defensive end Quinton Reese, so I'll have to give him a call tomorrow to get the specifics to see if he even got an invitation and what it's about. Either way, I feel blessed to have been invited to whatever the hell it is, but it would be killer to watch a little scrimmage action and be able to rub elbows with the Robin's  ;) of the world.

Weagle Weagle!

So, if your friend was invited by a former player and invited you, does that mean you get to invite somebody too?

If so, can you take me?!  :party:

I will be down there Aug 18 for a scrimmage as part of the scholarship weekend.  This may be what you are talking about.  Last year, I was able to stand on the field (JHS) while the team went through drills.  Talked to Cole Cublic, Heath Evans, Stan White & Quentin Riggins.  Briefly chatted with Trooper, Luper & Thig.  Even said "Hey" to Yox.  Was able to stand on the sidelines for the scrimmage.  It was awesome.  Afterwards, we were treated to lunch.  Can't wait to do it again this year.  WDE.

I'll be alot more subtle than that.  I was thinking I would make an announcement on the PA system.
