When you are on Auburn University’s campus, be sure to visit the iconic Samford Hall, and take a picture in front of the Auburn University sign. Then head to nearby Toomer’s Corner, where students gather regularly to celebrate big athletic wins by rolling — yes, with toilet paper — the famous Auburn Oaks trees. Explore downtown and grab lunch or a cold glass of Toomer’s Drugs’ famous lemonade.
