THAT HAT IS ACTUAL SIZE.
Larry! Call the boys! LOOK!!!
See that? You know what this means?
GIANT ROBOT BEAR IS APPROACHING COMPLETION!!! Oh, just wait until he burns Opelika! The screams! Oh, the festive screams! Take a picture, Levi. WOOOO ROOOOOOOOLL TAAAAAAAAHDE!!! Robot Bear and Saban gonna take us back to the promised land! Thank god he runs on human blood and Chesterfields, what with gas being so expensive. LOVE YOU GIANT ROBOT BEAR!!!
(It’s actually the roof for a concession stand called “The Bear’s Den,” which will serve hot dogs, hamburgers, nachos, and individually-wrapped bourbon-flavored cigarette ceviches-to-go. The hat will be stolen in six months, and we will bet hard American currency on this.
The Bear’s Den will serve the usual stadium fare — hamburgers, hotdogs and nachos, and will be one of several themed concession stands. Ezell’s Fish Camp, for example, will have a tin roof and look like a cabin on the lake, and Crimson Fried has a mural of past UA football teams, Evans said.
To paraphrase Troy Smith on Jamarcus Russell’s taste in jewelry: a snack stand hawking fried balls of tasty death with the name “Crimson Fried” is an incredible representation of any and all things Alabama.)

Re: Bryant signing 200 players was his only advantage…
Last time I checked, the NCAA has no scholarship restrictions at any time on those schools. Every school could sign as many players as they want. I don’t see how that changes anything.

While it may seem like a convenient out to try to blame the Connecticut Yankees for this, the finger can only be pointed at the bama fan base as a whole for creating the climate where something like this would be contemplated in the first place, nevermind executed and profitable.

I’m sure Tom Arnold will buy all his authentic Tide refreshments under the hat.

Sadly, you are correct. This is why it is not upsetting to most Auburn fans when bammers attempt to needle us with “Most folks think Auburn is in Georgia.”

/Now living in mortal fear that NU boosters will get a 600 lb. fiberglass version of the corncob-hat installed at 13th & O.

Stupid Yankee companies and their Breaking and Entering prowess.

1) I don’t know any actual AU folks who call JHS “the jungle”. Tuberville floated that when he first arrived and it quighly and rightly sank. Luckily it isn’t preserved for eternity in a half ton of fiberglass.
2) What is this about piping in crowd noise? I don’t recall that ever at JHS.
But anyway, I’ll bet this guy thinks the BDS additions are quite classy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaiwkFNJYA0&eurl=http://thewareaglereader.wordpress.com/
And has anyone else been having difficulty getting comments to actually post?

Crabapple Buck @ 39 - I’m confused - are you making nice with SC people to lull us into not noticing that we’re only a couple of weeks away from OMG the bestest biggest game EVAR (since the last one) (copyright ESPN), or taking the chance to get a shot in at Notre Dame? Either way, nice work.

We only pipe in crowd noise for the chop blocks, and yes, calling it the Jungle has always been stupid.
