| The initial rolling of Toomer's Corner by students after
a football victory may be lost in history, but it probably was in 1962
or 1963. This was the studied opinion of Pharmacist Mac Lipscomb,
who operated the drugstore on the Corner from the early fifties into the
mid-eighties. Pictured is a 1985 celebration, probably after Auburn's
17-14 victory over Georgia Tech in Atlanta. For several years, rollings
occurred only after an away-game victory, but in the 1990s many home-game
victories also rated a rolling. -- Photo: Auburn Plainsman |
