Alabama Power Urges Lee County Residents To Conserve Power For Aubietron Launch

What looked to be an exciting time with Aubietron for the Auburn family this coming Saturday, could end in failure without the cooperation of the residents and businesses in Lee County.

The power company is asking all businesses and homes that are serviced from that division of Alabama Power to conserve as much power as possible on September 12 to avoid power interruptions and have enough to send the 1.21 gigawatts necessary to power the Aubietron for the whole game.

“Some of our calculations are off and without the cooperation of the citizens, we may not be able to show some of the pregame videos planned such as the new ‘How to Properly Inseminate a Cow’ video”, said recently hired spokesman and former butt snapper Reece Dismukes.
