What led to the iconic photo of Uga V and the Auburn player?
In 1996, a photographer for the Montgomery Advertiser snapped a picture that is somewhat of a legend in the world of college football. The image shows Uga V, the University of Georgia’s live bulldog mascot, lunging toward an Auburn University football player during a game.

3 Lost Alabama Neighborhoods That Disappeared From the Map
Alabama’s missing neighborhoods are sometimes hidden beneath places whose present purpose seems obvious: a military installation, industrial land or a redeveloped city center. Their earlier residential lives can be much harder to see. The houses are gone, street patterns have changed, and a name that once meant home may appear mainly in an archive.
