The annual “War Eagle Wednesday” was in full swing. The Auburn University campus was a sea of orange and blue, and the excitement was palpable. Amidst the cheering crowds, Aubie, the beloved tiger mascot, was preparing for his grand entrance. However, disaster struck. In a moment of exuberant enthusiasm, Aubie tripped over his own tail, sending his headgear flying across the packed stadium. To the astonishment of the crowd, instead of the familiar ferocious tiger eyes, a pair of wide, bewildered eyes stared back at them. The crowd erupted in laughter, a contagious wave of amusement washing over the stadium.

Amidst the chaos, a group of enterprising students, true believers in the “Auburn Family” spirit, saw an opportunity. They quickly commissioned a batch of t-shirts featuring a graphic of Aubie’s accidental expression. The design, a simple yet hilarious depiction of the mascot’s bewildered eyes, captured the essence of the unexpected and the enduring spirit of Auburn. The shirts, emblazoned with the slogan “Even When Things Go Wrong, We Still Believe,” became an instant hit.
The “Aubie’s Eyes” shirts quickly transcended their humorous origins. They became a symbol of the resilience and good humor that define the Auburn spirit. Fans wore them with pride, not just as a reminder of a funny incident, but as a testament to their unwavering support for their team. The shirts served as a constant reminder that even when things don’t go according to plan, the Auburn Family sticks together and finds a way to celebrate the unexpected.
