Hundreds of Auburn fans lined up at the Montgomery, Ala., Walmart on Friday to get their pictures taken with the BCS Championship trophy. It’s part of the trophy’s triumphant tour of three Walmart locations in Alabama and Georgia, continuing all this weekend. But not everyone in line was enjoying the experience, as you can see. Poor Ducks fan.
Actually, this guy admitted to the photographer that he is Kenneth Jackson, an Auburn fan who slapped on an Oregon Ducks shirt because he thought it would make for a funny photo. Well played, sir.

WOW! I just read that auburn will host an Inbred party on campus after the last leg of the Walmart tour. How sad that Walmart is THE BEST they can do. I’m actually a native of Alabama, but this really makes us look like toothless, inbred, backwards, republican hicks! Get-er-done! ! ! ! This guy in pic looks like he’s had too much of auntie-momma’s moonshine! THE SOUTH SHALL RISE AGAIN!

My Girlfriend (you know, a girl who’s NOT related to me) just told me that this comment was too mean because it’s true. I would apologize except no one from the south can read this – not just because they’re illiterate, but because it’s going to be a while before they get Internet in the sticks. If Glenn beck or palin ain’t crying about it, they ain’t knowing!!

What’s wrong, secsucks, did someone piss in your cornflakes this morning?
As it was last year with ‘Bama’s trophy also being shown at Walmart, this is a promotional deal involving Dr. Pepper (the sponsor of the BCS Championship trophy) as evidenced by the wall of Dr. Pepper products in the background. It has nothing to do with Auburn, and it would have made a tour of Oregon-area Walmarts had the Ducks won.
And if you’re afraid of people outside the South thinking that we’re toothless, inbred, backwards hicks (Republican or not)…then you need to move back home and stop giving them those ideas.
