JetaTek 0 Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I had an amazing time at the Sugar Bowl. It was like a "collision of the worlds" for me, with my childhood obsession (Auburn football) being thrust into my collegiate playground (New Orleans). Within the span of about 20 minutes, I ran into the former mayor of Phenix City, AL (where I spent my elementary school years) who had been a family friend, and then bumped into a girl that I had financial accounting with at Tulane. My family and I got to check out the WEN tailgating party, got to check out the Tiger Walk by the New Orleans Centre, and then my brother and I completely lost our voices cheering for Auburn from 7:00PM - 11:00PM. I can't begin to describe how cool it was to see my all-time favorite sports team complete an undefeated, 13-0 season in what I consider my hometown, surrounded by friends and family. Absolutely amazing. I thought I'd post a few pictures from the day for those of you interested. I'll have to split it over a few posts due to the Forum's images per post limit. Tiger Walk Randomly, we ended up standing by Jason Campbell's & Tommy Tuberville's families for the Tiger Walk. It was pretty surreal seeing multiple tiers of Auburn fans here in New Orleans (usually it's only me & one other guy!) A rather enterprising individual advertising his website.

JetaTek 0 Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 Pregame Auburn's band takes the field. I thought it was great that Auburn got to run out of the main tunnel, while VT had to run out of a side tunnel. Team huddle before kickoff. Postgame Final score: Auburn 16 - VT 13 Virtually the entire Auburn team stormed the ESPN Gameday stage after the game. Flag waving and shaker shaking continues in the corner of the field. Two very worn out Sugar Bowl attendees (AshleyZ & JetaTek) after a day of football fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GalensGhost 0 Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Want to know something even more amazing? I was standing about two people down from you at TigerWalk. I was stunned to browse here for a goof and see photos of the people I was standing around. Very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
