AUBURN, Ala. - After showcasing his culinary competence before a recent soccer game, Bruce Pearl – aka “the Guardian of the Grill” - is fine-tuning the menu for Sunday’s Auburn volleyball match.
“Burgers with Basketball” is the headline. Starting at 1 p.m., Auburn men’s basketball coaches and players will serve free hamburgers and hot dogs to Auburn students before the Tigers take on Alabama at 1:30 at Auburn Arena.
“When you see our other sports teams every day, and you see them in the weight room, the training room and on the practice court, and you see how hard they work, and how passionate they are about what they do, you just can’t help but feel drawn to support them,” Pearl said.
