Last night was Senior Night and the very last game to be played in Beard Eaves Memorial Coliseum. Both have significant meanings to me 1)as I vividly remember being one of those mothers walking her son out to center court on Senior night in 1999. A proud and sentimental moment for a parent when they realize this is it, a real turning point in all our lives. 2)and I vividly remember running my daily miles getting some "college weight gain" off around that coliseum in the 1970's and attending many events here as a college student.
It will be good to have a new facility in a lot of ways but the old one holds so many memories for all of us that attended Auburn. We can never go back to those things that were but we can always hold them as special parts of our lives.
The place was packed last night and the students were having so much fun.
