Turtle_Tiger 13 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I'm Brian McCollum and grew up in Snellville, GA. I am married and 28 years old. I was born and raised by Georgia Bulldogs and converted to Auburn once I visited in 1994 with my friends brother. I was hooked and wanted to be an engineer anyways. My family was pretty upset, but I only applied here and have never looked back. I now reside in Auburn and work at Briggs & Stratton. War Eagle!! Lucky you!! Oh and don't they say "Snellville were everyone is someone" Yep I've heard that one and "Snellville where everybody is somebody". I was a mighty Shiloh kid we were unfortunately always run over by Brookwood and Parkview during my days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treble 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 This is my first time posting.. I tried right after I found the website. Hope I do it right. First of all I'm 65... Lived in Childersburg & Sylacauga area all of my life.. Most of my family were Alabama fans, so I only got into football before my marriage in 1963...(Still married to same sweet man!) I pulled for Alabama & I remember watching Joe Natmath when he played for Bama on TV. Got to see him play when we went to New Oleans, saw him play with the Jets.. (Some of the fans throw tomatoes I believe after the game) My husband was an AUBURN FAN... we went to Auburn pertaining to an agricuture meeting. I saw the campus for the first time...(I've never been to Tuscaloosa's campus...) Needless to say from that moment on I was an Auburn Fan!! The first game I went to was the AUBURN WIN after loosing 9 games to BAMA... Pat Dye & the Bear, at Legion Field. We stayed & watch them take the goal post down!!! I was all around Bama fan's with my Auburn shirt on.. I had drinks spilt on me, hit in the head with a flag, etc. but I screamed & was so PROUD of our team & this really got me into the football experience!!! My husband & I had season tickets during the 80's. I was in stadium when Pat Dye won so many of the games in the last 3 to 5 minutes on the clock. Bo Jackson & the team was AWESOME!! The most excited game was the '89 game at AUBURN! The tiger walk & game was UNBELIEVABLE!!! We could have sold our tickets for $200 each & we didn't!!! This was my first year to keep up with the recruiting! I couldn't believe what I did on signing day.. The TV, Radio & your website kept me occupied all day!!! Thank you so much for the website. I don't post or get on to chat, but I do enjoy reading!!! Mrs TREBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augolf1716 21,238 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Fantastic post Mrs TREBLE. Lots of great stories. You and I are close to the same age so we have seen many of the same games. I remember my dad talking me to see Joe Namath play against UGA and I got his autograph. Yes at the time my dad was a turd fan. He later saw the light. By the way I still have Joe's autograph. I also have Tucker Fredrickson too. Feel free to post often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aujess07 4 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 New member but have been reading for a while. Heard about this site on another board and thought it sounded too good to be true. I was wrong! My name is Jesse. I live in Anniston and have been a lifetime Auburn fan! It's great to have a place to stay up to date on recruiting news and being able to chat with other Auburn faithful.
