Military Appreciation Day
« on: October 01, 2013, 11:45:12 AM »
Just an al.kum copy/pasta heads up for this weekend's game. 


 Auburn's return to action on Saturday against Ole Miss will also represent the Tigers' now-annual day celebrating the military.  Auburn has scheduled Military Appreciation Day for Saturday, scheduling a flyover with the Black Diamond jet team flying Aero L-39 Albatross Jets. But the flyover will be only the most visible of several measures taken to honor the military.

Auburn's coaching staff will wear a military appreciation patch on the sleeve of their shirts Saturday, and the Tigers will wear a special Auburn military appreciation shirt during a Tiger Walk led by Auburn's ROTC members.  Before the game, the team captains will be joined by four Wounded Warriors, the band will play a military-themed halftime show and Auburn plans to recognize several veterans at various points during the game. 

In addition, several displays of military vehicles and shelters will be present on campus, and Auburn has partnered with Gameday for Heroes, an organization that helps veterans and their families attend games, to distribute tickets to active military and veterans. Fans can purchase tickets for veterans or donate unused tickets to GameDay for Heroes.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

It is.  The Black Diamond Jet Team is being replaced by Quay's On-Time Crop Dusters, stationed at the Elba International Airport and Barber Shop.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Hopefully they won't miss the stadium like last year before the A&M game. But then again I don't blame for wanting anything to do with Auburn last year.

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.'

Well in their defense their orders were to go to a football game...not an ass whooping.
