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

I think it was a horrible thing for the guy to do.  I am not sure what I think the punishment for him ought to be.  I think a parallel for the gators would have been for someone to have poisoned Albert.  I suspect the "fair" thing would be a large fine and a long probation.   While I might want to see him serve jail time, I am not sure that would accomplish anything.

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.
