Auburn Being Auburn: Eagle Flight - Auburn University Athletics
Nothing better signals the start of a college football game than the eagle flight soaring above a sold-out Jordan-Hare Stadium. Now that is Auburn Being Auburn.

Tiger Vi was the War Eagle when I was there. I remember she used to live in the aviary outside the stadium at the time, and could barely fly. Not long after graduating, I was back for another football game and saw that her on the field trying to fly. I felt so sad for her not being able to go 20 yards! The War Eagle is probably one of my favorite things about Auburn, if only because it gets under other folks' skin so easily!
Some person: What are you even? A tiger?
Me: Yep.
Them: An eagle?
Me: Nope.
Them. I don't get it.
Me: I'm also a plainsman, FWIW.
Them: GAH!
I smile...
