national championship 2010

somwhow i managed to get 4 signs from birmingham to arizona. i almost had to buy them their own plane ticket. i threatened every flight attendant that if the signs got messed up there would be trouble.

BIG TROUBLE. thankfully, they made it safe and sound.

glitter au

welcome to camelot

personal fave. shut the duck up

and duck, duck, lose

gameday! sisters with the first oregon fan we saw

 

 the crew

 we happened upon this tiger fanatic

the only thing i love more than glitter is confetti. unbelievable.

 WE ARE NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!

 we stayed in the stadium until they forced us out. tried to get dr. lou with the sign. no such luck.

who cares....we won! (and we touched cam)

and so that brings us up to date. national champs 2010.

and, just in case you are wondering where all the glitter signs go.....my garage wall! war. damn. eagle.

please check out my life-sized cam. i couldn't resist adding a little bling to his uniform.

bring on saturday. can't freaking wait!

iron bowl and sec championship

"the comeback" -sky over bryant denny stadium turns perfectly "auburn" as game comes to an end.

que music for rammer jammer: "we just beat the hell out of you...." never gets old.

 each time i venture to the "depths of hell" (aka t-town) i swear i'll never go back. but i always do.

we look rough after the stress of iron bowl 2010. bammers exit the stadium in record time.

 we, on the other hand, stayed until they forced us out. thanks to alex, we got to go on the field post game and get a pick with the espn men. amazing!

cousins post iron bowl win. still can't believe it.

post sec smackdown. arizona bound!

 

we are the CAMpions!

  #1 for real. out with "the old ball coach" (spurrier) and in with the new.

south carolina through georgia = lots more signs

 au vs. south carolina. back of sign said, "starvin for darvin" (don't have a pic for some reason)

au vs. la monroe

au vs. ak

tv announcers told a story during a game about mccalebb's friends betting him that he couldn't catch a squirrel when walking to class one day. he showed them and everybody last season.

rowdy crew after ak win. please notice the real pig head in the picture. we brought home the bacon. literally.

au vs. lsu tailgate blowout. balloon arch over "the spirit path". we sprinkle glitter on sidewalk and force everyone to dance past our tg. for real. you must dance.

heading into au vs. lsu game

we won!!!

au @ ole miss (had to poke fun at their new and improved mascot. the black bear)

ahhhhh! "we own this grove!"

we are # 1 (gotta love au trustee paul spina)

cam's cousin chloe! love her.

 decided to get a bit cocky confident for ga.

the group at georgia tg

best sign ever. and auburn santa saw it and came down to our seats.

sec baby!

oh yeah, aubie with the sign! everybody's hands go up. and they stay there.......

"the comeback" and sec up next



true blue- aka auburn vs. clemson

of course i went a bit overboard with signs since espn gameday would be in auburn for the clemson game.

even more so when both, Rick and Bubba and Kinnucan's, announced that they would give cash money to any idiots that had signs reading their names- of course you HAD to make it on espn gameday. naturally, i was all over it. i spent far too much time glittering that week. really, it was absurd. but i thought it would be worth it when i cam home with the cash prizes. i had enough signs for about 10 people and forced gathered those willing to hold a sign. we arrived at the espn stage at 7:15am. we were ready.

apparently, espn decided that they wouldn't allow you to "promote" businesses with signs anymore so this is where it got ugly. an espn guy came over immediately, took my rick and bubba sign, and broke it over his knee. WHAT?!?! i almost lost it. actually, i did lose it. i was livid. clearly he had no clue how long i spent on my signs. ruuuude! after attempting to confiscate about 3 more signs to no avail....we decided to boycott gameday all together and headed back to the tg. we proudly displayed all signs there.

such a disappointment as the signs were ausome.

creative kinnucan's sign. emailed the sign pic to them and got a $75 giftcard to their store. score.

rick and bubba sign. luckily i took a picture of this one before the big day as it was broken and deposited in a dumpster near the stadium. i actually was dumb enough to look in two separate dumpsters to see if it was "near the top". no luck and i admit, that was really unnecessary. but i couldn't drop it. i wrote to the r & b show and sent in the picture. they read my email on air and showed the picture of the sign on their website!! no cash prize but at least i felt as though my efforts were recognized. yeah!

 

 protect this house. they tried to get this one and the one below and this is when we took off running.

not a chance.

one of my favorites. thanks to blake for the idea,

 signs proudly displayed back at the tg. true blue (top left corner) fairley lethal, shake n' blake, tebow/cam, super mario, kinnucam's, and will the REAL tigers please stand up?!

yes, i really took numerous signs in the game. but it worked, WE WON. (barely)

section 28, row 6 after the win!!

celebratory group shot back at the tg after the game. wde.

the greatness of 2010 begins. season opener against arkansas state...

 zac etheridge would be back from his injury in '09 against Ole Miss

 new qb, cam was rumored to be impressive. understatement.

my cousin, sarah (far left)- suggested above catchy slogan.

who would have thought?!  WCE.

i admit how proud i am that i had this on game one....before all the hype.

we get on with it! me, bess, and em

after the game, this nice lady comes over and asks to get a pic with the sign.

none other than cam's grandmother! she was sitting one section over with some

other family members. score! she asked to keep the sign. duh.

cause in my eyes you know what that means......

cam has one of my glitter signs (kind of) still exciting.

signs from back in the day.
