Find Frank

This season at men's basketball SEC games, we will post a clue that will lead you to a life size picture of Frank Tolbert. The clue will be posted on this site, as well as the Tiger Beat newspaper at games. It's a scavenger hunt for Frank - we post the clue, the next day, from 9am-5pm, you can start looking for Frank until the next SEC game day. When you find Frank, take a picture with him, and email it to markets@auburn.edu with your name. A lucky winner will be selected to win an Under Armour prize pack each game. The winner will be announced at the next SEC game day, and their picture will be displayed on the video board and the Auburn Ignited website. You must be present to win, so if you email in your picture, make sure that you will be at the next game! Then, another clue will be announced, and so on. At the final SEC game, these winners will compete for the Grand Prize, an XBOX 360 Live!

For example, we post a clue on 1/19 - you find Frank, email markets@auburn.edu, and the winner is announced at the next SEC Game (1/30- LSU). Then the next clue is announced, and so on.
