AUBURN, Ala. (AP) -- Auburn University says someone deliberately poisoned trees at Toomer's Corner, where fans have long celebrated big wins and hundreds gathered after the Tigers won the football national championship on Jan. 10.
The university said in a statement Wednesday that a herbicide commonly used to kill trees was applied "in lethal amounts" to the soil around the two trees, and that they likely can't be saved.
Auburn discovered the poisoning after taking soil samples on Jan. 28, a day after a man called a syndicated radio show based in Birmingham saying he had used the herbicide on the trees.
"The weekend after the Iron Bowl, I went to Auburn, Ala., because I live 30 miles away, and I poisoned the Toomer's trees," the caller told The Paul Finebaum Radio Show, saying he was at the Iron Bowl.

Not that simple.
There could be major deep soil contamination that could potentially affect other trees in other locations.
There could also be groundwater contamination that will eventually affect the water supply, not to menton fish and other wildlife in streams and ponds.
I say let's use the EPA for something good for a change. Have the EPA come in and declare the site a "superfund" cleanup site.
And charge the perp for every penny it costs to clean it up.

Well, in the days of the Druids he would have been tortured to death for such a crime.

You can easily estimate a density profile based on the time.
Don’t worry, be happy. I saved it. :)

Based on his appearance and how he sounded on the air, I would not be surprised if he never went past high school. One of those “subway alums” who typically breathes and eats sports.
Classless idiot.
