auburning down the house

Tami, a co-worker of mine and maker of some of the finest Guinness cupcakes known to man, is an Auburn alum and the president of Auburn's Alumni Association here in Denver. A die-hard college football fan to the core, it was no surprise that Tami attended the national championship in Arizona on Monday.

In case you didn't know... Auburn won.

Auburn is home to so many school traditions... Tiger Walk, War Eagle, Wreck Tech Pajama Parade... but when you win a national championship in football, those traditions tend to kick it up a notch. Tami told me that every time Auburn wins a home football game they "roll" (aka "t.p." in lou lingo) Toomer's Corner, the intersection of Magnolia and College streets where Auburn's downtown transitions to the campus.

Take a peek at the chaos that ensued when Auburn won, and the beautiful disaster that resulted. Now if only the Missouri Tigers could pull off a national championship...
