Home Plate Beer Garden?

So they're taking a parking lot, and for 4 hours they're putting up tents, selling beer and food and having live music.  Fuck Jay Jacobs!!!

Agreed 100%.  But, I'm not going to be able to enjoy an X-Gate or any other for that matter, knowing the outrageous thing they're doing to the baseball parking lot for 4 hours.  Do you not realize they're going to have food, shade AND bathrooms there?  What happened to my beloved Auburn?

You're (ostensibly) a man:  the world is your urinal.

 Haters wanna hate,
 Lovers wanna love.
 I don't even want none of the above.
 I want to piss on you!
 Yes I do. I'll piss on you;
 I'll pee on you.

So, you are against getting the brain cancers while peeing next to the satellite dishes and watching everybody tailgating along Wire Road?

You wanna know my problem?  Really?

This is the beginning.  Not the end. 

He puts up his shitty tents.  The college serves alcohol (a practice to which I object on principle). People pile in right there where, normally, you find fans and the band and band buses and Tiger Walk.  They've already got (or had) the inside part of the baseball field set up as a vendor, paid tailgating area. With bathrooms and such not. 

So he agrees to this shit outside.  It's only a matter of time before the "I paid for this so I should have better access to Tiger Walk" begins.  Of course Jay will start roping off areas of that for his "special" pals.  And it will cost more.  Tiger Walk will slowly morph into another staged, paid event instead of the sincere fan support it is now. 

The average fan -- already priced out of seating inside the stadium -- will be denied all the other pieces that made Auburn..... Auburn.

You said it better than me. And if anyone thinks it's crazy speculation and could never happen? Remember back 15 years and imagine what we have now. It would have been crazy talk.

[Godfather]

It's like they can't let us just be fans and do shit ourselves.  Part of the experience is setting up your own shit near people you come to know.  Bringing your own food and drinks. And sharing them.

Because you can't Jay took that away remember.

[Godfather]

I ain't paying for no Tiger Walk!

But how is this a problem?  It's just an option nobody is forcing anyone to take.  The tailgate police aren't going to show up and say, "Shut it down. Tailgating in the Jacobs Beer Garden only."  If you want to go in right by Tiger Walk and grab a brew, a sammich and drain the lizard, you have that option.  If you don't want to, don't.

Snags is correct and everyone else here is wrong.

Oh noes! More opportunities to buy quality beers at Auburn games! Whatever will we do!

When the slippery slope of not allowing other tailgates on campus becomes reality, then I'll join you in my dissent.

Speaking of tailgating, big Joe cooked up some superb meats last Saturday! Oh, and a big shout out to GF and GH.

Alright already.  We don't want to hear about the "Best tailgate evah!" anymore.  Some of us were otherwise detained.
