Did you know that every time Auburn fans step into Jordan-Hare Stadium, they're walking into a legacy built by some of the most influential figures in Auburn history.

Ralph "Shug" Jordan led Auburn football from 1951-1975, earning 176 victories and bringing home the Tigers' 1957 national championship.

Dr. Clifford Leroy Hare was one of Auburn's earliest football players, a team captain, faculty member, and passionate Auburn advocate who helped shape the Auburn spirit we know today.

Their contributions were honored in 1973 when Auburn's stadium officially became Jordan-Hare Stadium.

While his name isn't part of the stadium's title, Pat Dye's impact is impossible to miss. As Auburn's head coach from 1981-1992, he guided the Tigers to four SEC championships, expanded Jordan-Hare into a premier college football venue, and helped bring the Iron Bowl to Auburn for the first time in 1989 which was previously played in Birmingham.

Today, Pat Dye Field at Jordan-Hare Stadium ensures his legacy remains part of every Auburn home game.

Happy Hey Day Auburn Family!

One of Auburn’s most cherished traditions is happening today as students, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends across campus wear name tags and greet one another with a simple “Hey!”

Rooted in a tradition dating back to World War II, Hey Day celebrates the welcoming spirit and strong sense of community that define the Auburn Family.

Your student can join in on the celebration at Campus Green from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. with live music, free food, games, prizes, and more!

Often recognized as one of the most iconic pregame traditions in college football, Auburn’s Eagle Flight inspires every member of the Auburn Family, while also shining a spotlight on the importance of protecting raptors and their habitats.

Over the last 5 decades, the Auburn University Raptor Center has rehabilitated and released thousands of injured birds of prey and educated countless visitors on the conservation of eagles, owls, hawks, falcons, and more.

Housed within the College of Veterinary Medicine, the Raptor Center continues to advance the care, research, and preservation of these incredible birds. With plans for expanded outreach and a new world-class facility, this Auburn tradition is only continuing to grow.

Want to learn more?

Attend Football, Fans & Feathers on the Friday before every home game for an up close look at these incredible birds. Gates open at 3 p.m., and the show starts at 4 p.m. Homecoming draws some of their biggest crowds, but with seating, bleachers, and grassy space available, they never sell out. Arrive early to secure a seat.

Learn more about the Raptor Center here: aub.ie/auburn-raptor-center
