A Geographical Investigation of Football and Its Fans at Auburn University A Geographical Investigation of Football and its Fans at Auburn University by Orion Michael Stand-Gravois A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Auburn, Alabama May 7, 2012 Copyright 2012 by Orion Michael Stand-Gravois Approved by Philip Chaney, Chair, Associate Professor of Geology and Geography Tom Martinson, Emeritus Professor of Geology and Geography Gregory Kowalski, Professor of Sociology Abstract In Auburn, AL, football, and especially college football, reigns supreme. Particularly, interest is placed on the Tigers, the team representing the local institution, Auburn University. This research paper investigates the spatio-temporal role of football at Auburn University and presents findings that are indicative of the spatial characteristics of Auburn’s football fan region and their relationship with the team. Sources used to map Auburn’s fan region included records of 2010 season ticket holders and Auburn booster club locations and membership figures. The fans are predominantly found in Alabama and Georgia. Heavy concentrations are seen in Auburn, as well as major urban centers with close proximity to Auburn such as Atlanta, Birmingham, and Montgomery. Questionnaire surveys of Auburn fans found that the majority of participants had attended Auburn and/or had family members who had attended Auburn. Fans commonly mentioned words like family, tradition, and atmosphere when describing why they liked Auburn Tigers football. ii Acknowledgments First and foremost I offer my sincerest gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Philip Chaney, who has shown unwavering confidence and support in my work throughout the entire process. Dr. Chaney was very instrumental in my decision to become a Geography major several years ago as an undergraduate and I am very thankful for having the opportunity to work with him during my graduate studies. Without his assistance, encouragement, and patience, none of this would be possible. I would also like to thank my other committee members: Dr. Tom Martinson and Dr. Gregory Kowalski. Dr. Martinson, along with Dr. Chaney, is someone that strongly contributed to my interest in Geography as an academic subject. His lectures on the geography of Latin America were among my favorite classes at Auburn. I feel honored that he took time out of retirement to help with my work. Dr. Kowalski’s Sports in America sociology class helped me realize the validity of sports research. I greatly appreciate his willingness to be a member of my committee as I know he is very busy with his own department. The Auburn University Ticketing Office, Alumni Association, and Special Collections and Archives Department have all provided assistance with my data collection and much of this would not be possible without their help. Thanks to all my classmates that have been so supportive during my graduate career. Specifically, I would like to thank Avery Werner for editing some early drafts of iii my work. Thank you to Sherry Faust, who has always provided positive words and smiles. Finally, thank you to my girlfriend, Carrie Melius, and my parents, Jim Gravois and Lucille Stand, for all your love and support during this process. iv Table of Contents Abstract

  • History of Fairfax City
    HISTORY OF FAIRFAX CITY The City of Fairfax began as the Town of Providence in 1805, a community built around the Fairfax County Courthouse. Completed in 1800 at the corner of Little River Turnpike and Ox Road, the area was a crossroads of conflict during the American Civil War with hardships and disrupted lives for everyone. From a crossroads of conflict, the area became a crossroads of commerce in the late nineteenth century when the dairy industry propelled economic rebirth and the building of schools, churches, homes, barns, and businesses and in 1874 the Town of Providence officially became the Town of Fairfax. The early 20th century ushered in a myriad of technological and transportation changes and the emergence of civic organizations, sports clubs, a Town police unit, and a volunteer fire company. World War II spurred rapid growth across the region in housing, business ventures, and population and Fairfax quickly changed from a rural to a suburban community. The Town of Fairfax deeded a 150-acre tract of land in 1959 to the University of Virginia to establish a permanent home for what is now George Mason University. In 1961, the Town of Fairfax was incorporated as the independent City of Fairfax and in 1962 a new City Hall was completed. Rich in history and heritage, residents and visitors enjoy a small-town atmosphere and an abundance of cultural and recreational pursuits in the midst of a bustling metropolitan area. As the City's first mayor, John C. Wood said in 1962 - "Fairfax has a wonderful past and present and an even greater future." HOW DID THE JULY 4TH CELEBRATION BEGIN IN FAIRFAX CITY? Fairfax City’s Independence Day Parade and Fireworks began in 1967 and was organized by the Delta Alpha Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority.
