What Would Cam Do?

[Tiger Wench]

We can do better than this... but some of these are funny.

Cam Newton is back at Auburn, taking spring classes and working toward his degree. Cam Newton will not be doing any press on this matter, according to Auburn. This leaves us with a lot of time on our hands to imagine what we would get up to if thrust back into a college environment with all of Newton’s accolades.

Are there any among you who would not abuse this situation just a tiny little bit? Here follows our abbreviated list of things we would try at Auburn if we happened to be a famous pro football player:

• Bring different combination of Auburn/Carolina apparel to campus every day. Festoon statue accordingly. Frequent refreshes for holidays/notable school events.

• Purchase baby elephant. Name it after Pat Dye. Outfit with tiny houndstooth hat. Drape with decorative blanket reading “28-27.” Take everywhere.

• Persuade Auburn biology department to breed tigers with panthers to produce the ultimate mascot/guardian-pet.

• At irregular intervals, pay for lunches of students in cafeteria line. When approached for autographs, claim to be Kenny Chesney in elaborate disguise and on stilts.

• Join intramural bowling, badminton or ping-pong team. Take everything involved WAY too seriously.

• Stage Cam Newton Look-Alike Contest.


• Enter Cam Newton Look-Alike Contest.

• Flaunt Cam Newton Look-Alike Contest grand prize: Denim jacket emblazoned with IT’S AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION in gold sequins down both sleeves.

• Hire Jackie Chan to show up on campus in rubber Mission Impossible mask of own face. At pre-appointed time, have Jackie Chan shed track suit and discard Cam Newton mask, revealing Jackie Chan. Hide. Film incident. Upload. Skip morning classes for a week to watch First Take debate Jackie Chan’s surprising measurables as a member of the Carolina Panthers.

This list inspired by intrepid reader @thejuiceisgood, who raises the delightful specter of Newton haunting his own statue:

I wonder if in between classes Cam will hangout at, oh I don’t know…, HIS STATUE? I would.

If I was Cam Newton I’d sit at base of my statue between classes and every once in awhile I’d ask someone walking by to lend me a scantron.

“Hey can I borrow a scantron?” – … – “Uhh I’m pretty sure the Cam Newton statue just asked me to borrow a scantron in Cam Newton’s voice.”

Hold a fund raiser for some weird on campus club.  Kick off the event with a large novelty check for $180,000.  Say that you just wanna give back to the university for all they did for you.

THAT is an X style response.  Well done!
