The REC Has Obtained Petition to Roll Toomer's Corner on Saturday

[GH2001]

A guy I know, Bama fan, has already heard about this shit.  He's taking toilet paper with him.  When I tried to tell him how stupid it was, he insisted that it was no different than Auburn fans singing rammer jammer to Alabama after they win, and the Auburn fans wouldn't get that pissed about it.

I told him to be prepared to carry a stern thumping.

I really do think you are the exception. And I salute you for it.

I've been telling you guys he is really an Auburn fan. He just hasn't admitted it yet.

I guarantee you there are days where Token questions his allegiance.

This is from Smokin Shane's blog.

He doesn't want that known and I believe has taken his name off of the contributors list from the site, but he's a big part of these assholes, and he's instigating this shit.

Cancer can't take his last breath soon enough.

Editor's note: I was thinking about Capstone Report. The two are indistinguishable though. Nothing but lunatic ranting and conspiracy theories.

But we're still rooting for The Big C, right?

Manned Homeland Security towers placed at Toomer’s Corner in preparation for Iron Bowl

War Damn Big Brother: Police keeping close eyes on Toomer's Corner this weekend.

Auburn police stationed a manned Sky Watch tower equipped with security cameras at Toomer’s Corner Wednesday afternoon in preparation for the Iron Bowl this Saturday.

“It’s some homeland security equpiment that we’re just making use of,” said Auburn Police Captain Tommy Carswell. “We’ve just moved that one to Toomer’s Corner to beef up our security there thinking it may play a role in what we need to do.”

Carswell said that placing the tower downtown isn’t necessarily in response to Internet rumors that Alabama fans are planning to roll Toomer’s Corner in the event of an Alabama win on Saturday, but simply a deterrent to any fan behavior that might jeopardize public safety.

“We don’t want fans fighting or drunks falling out in the street…. it’s there to serve a number of purposes,” he said. “I don’t know if there’s a concrete or tangible reason for putting it there, but we’ll be doing some recording there. This thing about poisoning the tree—I don’t think anybody else is is trying to do that but if so we very well may have it recorded.”

Alabama fans might be kept from directly harming the the Toomer’s Oaks, but would they have the legal right to roll Toomer’s Corner?

Carswell says yes.

“Our goal is not to say no Alabama fan can throw toilet paper. It’s not illegal for an Alabama fan to throw toilet paper than it is for an Auburn fan to throw toilet paper.”

“We’re going to do our jobs without violating anybody’s rights.”

But were Alabama to win, and if an Alabama fan were to try to roll Toomer’s Corner with toilet paper, they would be doing so at their own risk, at least when it comes to traffic—police do not block off the corner of College Street and Magnolia Avenue when Auburn loses.

“We don’t have any plans of closing off the corner if Alabama wins,” Carswell said. ” We do if Auburn wins. That’s our call.”

“If someone else wins, we’ re not making the decision to close it off and let them have it for an hour. All the roads will remain open. Now, if it comes to a point where the roads are open but someone is doing or causing something that’s keeping traffic from coming through, that’s an arrestable offense.”

Carswell said police are preparing for the worst but hoping for the best.

“Our first concern is preventing a breach of the peace and somebody getting hurt,” he said. “That’s why [the Sky Watch tower] is there, to keep the peace.”

What's a good over/under on how many years until the national guard is called in for the Iron Bowl?

I say three more years.

No kidding. Absolutely fucking ridiculous.

[AUTailgatingRules]

I see bad things happening this weekend.  I hope no one show up in one of the "toomers" Bama shirts.  This could actually be the end of the rivalry if things get out of hand.

Wait...what?  Seriously?

Then by all means, may the toilet papering, rioting, brawling, police brutality-ing begin!

In other words, if Alabama does win and we see someone trying to roll the trees, if they are pushed into traffic they can be arrested...

They get what they deserve. As an Alabama fan, I wouldn't be caught anywhere near those trees wearing anything Alabama related. Even though I think Updyke is a piece of shit, and I don't agree with what he did, it would just be asking for trouble. As a fanbase, we should be ashamed of what that fuckstick did. I know I am. Any Bama fan who thinks it would be a good idea to go anywhere near/roll those trees after what Updyke did is getting what they deserve.

Fucking embarassing.

Especially if Auburn is able to pull out a W.

If bama fans roll the toomers trees I'll post the pictures of bloody teeth I knock out during their celebration. I'm a honey badger.

Nothing to see here, move along.

You shoulda left Gen. Lee's statue alone on general purposes, but harmless.
