Best Places to Live – Auburn, AL

My long overdue first Auburn related post is going to be short but sweet.  The talk of the Auburn nation this week (other than losing players to the MLB draft, and Alabama’s latest penalties from the NCAA) has been the US News & World Report article titled “Best Places to Live 2009” which mentions none other than Auburn, Alabama as one of those top 10 places.  This just strengthens my long held amazement of how anyone in their right mind (athlete or not) could visit Auburn and still decide to attend the University of Alabama and have to reside in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  And really, this article takes that notion up a notch to wondering how anyone could visit Auburn and want to go ANYWHERE ELSE…but I digress.  This certainly is a cool recruiting ploy for the coaches to use out on the recruiting trail this year.  War Damn Auburn.
