Amazing what some liquid courage will do for some people. Since no harm was really done, it's safe to say that Gus is going to be able to take this distraction and his luck up win last night to buy himself some more time.

News came pouring in early Sunday morning about a fire set to one of the Toomer's Oaks trees following Auburn's win over LSU.


Now, a suspect has been brought into custody, according to a tweet from Auburn University Athletics Director Jay Jacobs.

Auburn Police have confirmed a suspect was detained, sending out a release with the following:

"On September 25, 3016, at approximately 12:15 am, the Auburn Police and Fire Divisions were notified of a fire at Toomer’s Corner. Upon arrival, it was determined that one of the Toomer’s oak trees, located at the intersection of W. Magnolia Ave and College St. was burning due to the toilet paper being set on fire. AFD units arrived within minutes to extinguish the fire. Witnesses at Toomer’s Corner identified a suspect, who was immediately detained and taken into custody by police on an unrelated charge of public intoxication. The suspect is a twenty-nine years old male from Auburn and is not affiliated with Auburn University. He was transported to the Lee County Detention Center, where he is being held on a $500 bond. AU officials are evaluating the damage to the Toomer Oak tree and the case remains under investigation by Auburn Police. Additional charges are anticipated.

In hindsight, maybe they shouldn't have planted those "venerable" trees so close to the dumpster fire?

Should have put up bronze trees , the rolling and power washing them off wouldn't have hurt them , would have allowed other fan bases to vent their frustration on the barn for winning luckily , without jail time ...... Win win

I don't mind the banter back and forth, bragging rights and good natured ribbing but to destroy something on purpose is wrong, plain and simple. If someone did this to Denny Chimes or around the hand prints and footprints of our captains, we would all be screaming bloody murder.

Its an idiot that lives in Auburn, very unlikely a Bama fan.

My thinking was this dude just lost his ass on the game so he was letting out some frustrations.

Have to agree with @alabama mike, this was senseless. I think throwing toilet paper in a tree is senseless, but that is their fambly tradition so have fun.

I always thought they should hit up Disney and have them make them a few trees so those dipshits could sling all of the TP they wanted.

Barner "logic". The idiot barners say that it was a Bama fan who was mad because auburn won. Because had LSU beaten auburn, it would have been the barn's third loss, and therefore it would have been the loss that officially eliminated auburn from playoff contention. The first or second loss that they had coming into that game didn't do it. But a loss to LSU sure would have. Now, auburn can make a comeback type of run and get into the playoffs. Because a team from a power 5 conference can make it into the 4 team playoff with two losses, even over other teams that have 1 loss. So, that's why it HAD to have been an Alabama fan that torched their trees. :rolf:

I'm impressed a barner knew to put a comma before trees in the first sentence.
