Alabama NewsCenter – Let the rolling begin again: Auburn University announces fans can roll replanted oaks at Toomer’s Corner

By: Martha Gentry

For the first time in several years, the famed Auburn Oaks at Toomer’s Corner are again ready to roll.

The decision to allow rolling of the large oaks was made recently after years of Auburn University asking fans to refrain from the tradition with two trees that were planted six years ago. Now, the university has determined the oaks are established enough for the rolling to re-commence.

“The rolling of Toomer’s Corner is one of the nation’s top sports traditions,” Auburn President Christopher B. Roberts said. “Our fans have come together for decades on the corner of Magnolia and College to celebrate our big wins. In recent years, we continued our cherished tradition by rolling different trees, but I am very excited that the Auburn family will once again be able to roll our most prominent trees.”
