WATCH: Toomer’s Corner was flooded with Auburn fans seconds after Tigers took down Kentucky
Published:
To say Auburn fans were ready to celebrate the school’s first trip to a Final Four would be an understatement.
Thanks to video surveillance footage from a camera posted across the street from Toomer’s Corner, you can see how quickly Tiger fans took to the streets to celebrate the program’s first trip to the Final Four. Auburn punched its ticket to the game after beating Kentucky 77-71 in the Elite Eight to capture the Midwest Region title.
Following the historic win, Auburn will now face Virginia on Saturday night for the right to advance to the national championship game. The other two programs to make the Final Four this season are Texas Tech and Michigan State.
After winning the 2019 SEC Tournament, you could argue there’s no hotter team heading into the Final Four than the Tigers and if Auburn wins it all, the celebration at Toomer’s Corner could be an all-timer.
Check out how quickly fans took to the streets to celebrate the team’s win over Kentucky on Sunday, it literally took seconds for Toomer’s Corner to be engulfed with fans.
