A Very Enjoyable Day-despite the outcome of the game!!




On Saturday Norman and I went with another couple to the Auburn/TN game. The weather was perfect for football. The couple we went with has a daughter who is a freshman at Auburn so we went by to see her dorm room and had a nice lunch with her at the famous Moma Goldberg's Deli. It was good but very crowded. Once we got our food we ate across the street underneath a nice shade tree. We then walked down to the corner of Roosevelt and something where the Tiger Walk takes place. The band came from all 4 streets and met at the corner where the drum major led them in serval numbers including the Auburn fight song. I love a marching band. After that we met up with the couple who got us our tickets. A very nice couple who both graduated from Auburn. We had great seats and because they were scholarship donors we were able to get our refreshments for free. We got to see the eagle fly in and around the stadium and enjoyed singing God Bless America along with the other 87,000 people there. Where else in the USA can you do that? Then we all sang the National Anthem. We do live in a great country!!!! It was a very enjoybale day.

Only in American. Nothing like a nice fall day. So glad you all enjoyed the day. We much all remember it is only a ball GAME. Someone has to lose and sometimes it is us. Just think how happy the other sides were. LOVE YOU ma

I realize it is only a game,but Will the Vols ever be on the winning end again? Glad you had a good time. Laurie and Don were there but they weren't in the AU donor section!!!!
