I believe it was Hammer who went to the AD and offered to buy our spot so we would own it. That’s a revelation to the AD. You can get money for real estate.
I believe there were several who talked to the AD about that. I know I did, and I am almost certain you are correct about Hammer as well. I am old, and my memory sometimes fails me, but I seem to recall several of us approaching him about that on one occasion when he visited our spot on game day.
A Bedouin tent.
HAHA!! Now, yesterday...today, this morning, when I see all the berching and moaning about Des being our new coach, I harken back to simpler times. LOL!! The bedouin tent, 50 people in the stands, being able to park right up against the stadium, getting our arsses beaten by North Alabama(?) We had a blast back then, but we didn't really have any idea how good things could/should be. Embrace the culture friends!!
Thanks for the post Dr Fun!!

It was good times. Again, it's like our kids: we just love who they are now, and we're so proud of them.
But we deeply miss when they were little, even though it was filled with dirty diapers, constant messes, exhausting nights, and your whole life revolving around their naps and their feeding times.
The whole journey has meaning, and joy. But we don't realize that until we're old geezers, looking back.
Yes, it was good times. The kibbe was good, too. And that tent saved our ssses a few times.
Everyone was laughing about the bedouin tent.
I always dreamed of getting a REALLY big one, and naming it 'ABRAHAM'S TENT.'
At the entrance would be a sign, "In the highest Biblical traditions, it is said that no one was ever turned away from Abraham's Tent.
"But we might make an exception for State fans."
