Bodda Getta Brew 6/25: True Testament to Tigers

For the third consecutive football season, Auburn has sold out of public season tickets for the upcoming football season.

Good Morning, Auburn Family. For the third consecutive football season, Auburn has sold out of public season tickets for the upcoming football season, matching last yearโ€™s record of 63,500 tickets purchased. The sellout was achieved during the exclusive Tigers Unlimited purchasing window and no inventory remained for a general public on sale.

Of the 63,500 tickets purchased, more than 4,000 are from new season ticket holders.

๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œThe Auburn family is second to none and a sellout of season tickets for three consecutive years demonstrates what makes Auburn so special.โ€ - Hugh Freeze, head coach

๐Ÿง TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: 1973!

In 1973, Cliff Hare Stadium (originally Auburn Stadium) was renamed Jordan-Hare Stadium, becoming the first stadium in the United States named after an active coach, Ralph "Shug" Jordan. The renaming took place before Auburn's first home game of the 1973 season. Jordan was the head football coach at Auburn from 1951 to 1975.
