COACHES SHILLING: TUBERVILLE’S GOLDEN GLOBE
Credit goes to two people for this find: commenter hunglikehussain, and the Auburner, who went to the trouble of capturing Tommy Tuberville’s epic performance in a Golden Flake commercial that suggests Auburn football players run fast because someone is beckoning them towards an open bag of Golden Flake potato chips. (For the record: in certain cases, we believe this could be completely true, as in the case of Kenny or David Irons.)
Mesmerizing! Tommy Tuberville doesn’t even have to be in the same moment and place to hypnotize you with a bag of potato chips: all he need do is call, and you will hear his plea from across space and time.
P.S. Just because we’re having fun with Sir Charles today over at the Sporting Blog, a few Auburn relevant quotes from barkleyquotes.com that should convince you not only that Charles is one of the great bon vivants of our time, but also confirm any and all stereotypes about SEC and Auburn athletes and academics:
“When I was recruited at Auburn [university], they took me to a strip joint. When I saw those titties on Buffy, I knew that Auburn met my academic requirements.”
Those titties. An area of study no young male college student can fail to appreciate.

sonofsamford,
I was always partial to Dye’s Colonial Bank commercial where the teller hands him a play she’d drawn up.
Dye: You pulled the tackle instead of the guard!
Teller: Oh he’s slow as molasses…

I always liked the South Central Bell/Southern Bell commercial where Bear said “I shore wish I could call mah momma rat now.” Instant revenue & big time guilt.

Just like the “sidewalk bammer” phrase is the calling card of an Auburn fan who realizes that his school is considered repulsive by over 3/4 of the state’s population.

Couldn’t think of anything funny to say, so I’ll just ask this. Why is Auburn wearing white at home?

As a life-long Auburn fan, thank you, thank you, thank you for the Pat Dye commercial references. The Osmose comment made me laugh ’till i cried……Good Lord those were some bad commercials…….
And yes – in MOST places in Alabama you can vote twice. You can also vote if dead.

Yet another thing Alabama has in common with Chicago.
