Unfortunately, I'm of the opinion that this kind of despicable crap is a result of the toxic culture that the Auburn/Alabama rivalry has created. It only adds gasoline to fire when you consider how poorly the state ranks in education. That place is simply loaded with ignorant people. And far too many people in that state place entirely too much emphasis in their everyday lives on freaking college football.

In total honesty, after living there 11 years, I absolutely hated the place and couldn't get out fast enough. And the omnipresent orgy of college football dominating every facet of daily life there was the primary reason. This action just confirms that I made the right choice.

Fred, I am truly sorry that this happened. I have been to Toomer's Corner plenty of times when my brother was a student at AU, it's tragic that it's history and beauty were treated this way. I hope I don't offend you with my loathe of the state. Logically I know it's unfair to allow the actions of a few ruin the reputation of others, but I imagine you can at least somewhat understand my sentiments.

Ignorant people? If I had the power to kick your dumbass off this website I would. We are glad you left this state.

College football and really football in general is far too important here. I agree with you about that. I am upset because this moron has take away something important and from what i understand may actually change the campus in that area if they have to remove the soil, structures, sidewalks & roads to remove the poison.

Following Tasha's lead I looked for my name in a header. As a follow up it does look like the trees are not going to survive. They will know more in the Spring but it is not looking good.
