In light of the Toomer's Oaks ordeal, Auburn decided to make and sell a t-shirt to raise money for the trees. My mom works with the woman in charge of trademarks and licensing at Auburn and she was telling my mom that they were having a difficult time finding a good picture of the trees to put on the t-shirt. Well, my dad had gone down to Toomer's after the Championship game to take pictures of it for my sister and me since we were still in Arizona. My mom sent these pictures to the licensing lady not really thinking they would use any of them but low and behold they loved the pictures and used two of them! We all thought this was cool because my dad is an Alabama fan, so it was nice that we were having some love in the rivalry.
The shirts weren't suppose to go on sale for another week but when we were downtown on Saturday Alison found the shirts in Anders! I was super excited and almost immediately sent an email to my dad telling him he should quit his job, which is hanging out in Italy for a semester (I might be a little jealous), and become a tree photographer! On Sunday mom and I went to Dicks and bought about 5 thousand shirts to send to friends and family members (we got a little carried away). You should go out and get one! They look good and are for a good cause.
LOVE that!! I can't wait to get one!!
