According to tweets from the Auburn athletic department, a fleet of RVs arrived on campus Saturday morning and started jockeying for prime tailgating position.

Tell you what, nothing screams Thanksgiving like scarfing turkey and stuffing in an RV in the middle of a hayfield.
It was easy for a lot of folks to find parking since Auburn has a bye this week.
You gotta admire the dedication of these fans. This is by far the biggest Iron Bowl in recent history and these fans are making sure they don’t miss the party beforehand.
