Good Morning everyone,
First off, CONGRATS on your win!!!
I wanted to write you and tell you that you have the best fans in SEC football!!
My son is the long snapper for Auburn (and yes, Ole Miss recruited him), so we wore our jersey’s as we walked to the stadium. Not one single time before or after the game did ANYONE say a negative thing to us. We were invited twice to tailgate with fans from Ole Miss. Once was before the game and the second time was as we walked back to the car after the game.
The gentleman that took our money for parking talked to us and welcomed us to Ole Miss.
It was amazing to see all the tailgating tents in “The Grove”. You have a beautiful campus and your fans take care of it. We ran into no one that had had too much to drink and we did not see trash lying around on the ground.
Again, congrats on your SEC win. You and your fans deserve it. We look forward to coming back to Ole MIss in two years and we hope that Auburn will show your fans the same courtesy next year that your fans showed us. Maybe, in two years, we will take up some offers to tailgate and spend some time with your fans.
Please pass this to all your supports staff and anyone else that had contact with the AU fans. Everyone was awesome at Ole Miss!!!!!
Sincerely,
Randy and Patricia Hill (AU and now Ole MIss fans!!)
Forrest Hill (AU long snapper)
