RE: [gatortalk] Toomer's Oaks are Coming Down

As someone who is often accused of being a tree-hugger, it is sad they didn’t make it but they survived longer than my horticulturist husband thought they would. One of my high school classmates lost her battle to breast cancer today, and I think like her, they and the AU arborists fought a good fight. Now they need to dig that soil out and replant. It will take decades to replace them, but a good experience for the Aubies watching them grow!

Yes Stephan that is a shame and will only deepen the hate between those two.

You have to feel a little bit of sorrow for Auburn Fans.

 

After their Spring Game this year, they will roll the Toomer’s Oaks one final time.

 

If you recall, a crazy nut Alabama Fan, Harvey Updyke, poisoned the trees a couple of years ago, after Auburn beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa…

 

Despite all efforts, the trees have not survived.
