Jim Fyffe Tribtue The Voice of the Auburn Tigers

[supergreek50]

Rod's great, but Jim was THE BEST. War Eagle and Godspeed, Mr. Fyffe

[jonas2323]

Man did I love to hear him say the words! TOUCHDOWN AUBURN!!!!

[forkliftho]

Touchdown Auburn nuff said!

[alaeque]

My AU tag reads "TDFYFE" Mr. Fyffe. The law wouldn't allow me to include the 2nd 'F'. I want you and your family to know that will ALWAYS be my tag and its a tribute to you good sir. I ran into you at age 13 on my way to Talladega at a Jack's. I gave a War Eagle, and you kindly responded. I know Heaven is perfect Mr. Fyffe, just know we miss you here in Auburn, AL.

[btj4au]

i still get chills when i hear ol' Jim says "TOUCHDOWN AUBURN"!!!!!!!!! i'd give my left arm to hear him call just 1 more Iron Bowl.

[WarEagleSoulWest]

Who the hell would dislike this video...

War eagle!

[killasocialist]

God bless yu ands keep yu forever! WE MISS YOU.

[MrBLP14]

He was sooo good at what he did. Its just not the same listening to a football game without him calling it.

[zeepman]

God I miss this guy so bad...=(

[jonas2323]

Jim u were the best! Wish u were still here! War Eagle!

[djdilz79]

Rod Bramblett sucks!! I wish AU would have made a better hire......he does nothing to continue the 'Touchdown Auburn' tradition. Re-incarnate Jim Fyffe./`

[zeepman]

Yes he does. He says "Touchdown Auburn" once per game to honor Jim.. He says "Touchdown Tiigers" to show respect to Fyffe. It's hard to try to do the same thing without offending anyone. I love it when Rod yells touchdown Auburn though and wrote to AU network asking him to do it all the time. I imagine some day he will.

[boogerray1957]

Jim made it easy to be an Auburn Tiger fan.Thank you Jim for all you have done for the Auburn family,you are truely missed. John Matthews

[4autiger]

Don't worry! Jim is still upstairs for every game. He's just a little higher up now.

[AuburnPivot]

Thanks for all the memories, you will be missed by the Auburn Family, War Eagle!

[tolivr]

I am an Alabama fan, but I recognize talent when I see it. Without a doubt, Jim Fyffe was the best football announcer in this state for many years. I always knew down and distance, and I always knew the yardline and score when he announced. I cannot say the same for my university's present announcer or the ones of the past 25 years.

And by all accounts, he was a true gentleman away from the game.

[defdrumm]

finally some class from an alabama fan.

thank you seriously at least you have respect. War Eagle! R.I.P Jim Fyffe truly footballs best announcer!!!

[cavsfn1234]

I cried watchin this. War Eagle!

Jim will forever be missed. Love ya man

[teeftaller7]

Screw auburn.... I anit rootin for a team i can't see...

[auburnfan27]

I wish he would have been around for 2004. We miss you JIm.

[afbamaboy]

I bet he yells "TOUCHDOWN AUBURN" in heaven!!!! God must be an Auburn fan anyway cuz the "sky is blue & th esun is orange" WDE!!!! Miss you Jim!!!!

[lvs62185]

Jim you are missed! We fell in love with your voice! Thank you for great memories!

[fishingfever34]

As Q would say, Back to you Jim...War Eagle

[parke257]

Their will be no one in the world that can say Touchdown Auburn or War Eagle like him. I would listen to him on the radio and not watch the tv. He is one of the many reasons I converted from saying Roll Tide to War Eagle. Thanks Jim and to all of the Auburn family WAR EAGLE.

[deejerman86]

I would do the same thing when i was growing up. I would watch the game on TV but mute the sound just so i could hear Jim Fyffe call the game. Nobody painted a picture with words quite like him.

[sportsfan002]

He gave a voice to our love for our Auburn Tigers. We always tuned in the radio station the day before, so we could listen to Jim Fyffe while we watched TV. Nobody was allowed to touch it once we had it set. There will never be anyone like him.

[bccole0874]

I cannot believe he has been gone over 5 years now. I remember last October outside the Bruno's in Gulf Shores seeing the tribute shirt for him, telling the lady how much I loved her shirt as I tried to fight back tears. I was friends with his daughter Christie for a while, and remember the bittersweet day she gave birth to her first son or Jim's grandson, two days after he passed away from his brain anurism. God Bless him and his family, and how I wished he could of lived to seen us in 2004.

[aufan4lif]

WAR EAGLE!!!

We miss you Jim

[aushorecm]

What a great Auburn man. May God bless him and his family. He was looking down for sure on the 2004 season, and I'm sure it made him smile. Rest in peace, Mr. Fyffe, and WAR EAGLE!!! :)

[nanapat000]

Jim was from my hometown of Paintsville, Ky. He and my father both worked at WSIP radio there. We were very good friends. Jim had one of the best broadcasting voices ever!!! I live in Lexington, Ky home of the UK wildcats. I would see Jim sometimes when they came to town. It was a terrible shock when Jim passed away. He always had such good things to say about his wife and twin daughters. He loved them with all his heart. He was truly a great man. Rest in Peace friend.

[bamadawgsc]

Jim was a class act. He was my second favorite after Larry Munson of course.

[emmyfrog101]

war eagle. i miss jim, it just isnt the same without him.

[Ryno845bsxz]

i just wanna cry. i miss him so much.

[Fau1tline]

I quit listening to AU net after Jim passed away. Rod just doesn't have it like he did. If Stan takes over, maybe I'll go back to listening to it. Jim really had a passion for football, and a deep love for Auburn, and We all miss him very much. WAR EAGLE.

[cbc2u]

I miss him alllll the time! He is remembered!

[midnightprism]

I'm a UAB fan, but I was listening to Auburn and Miss. State on the radio and thought "MAN, I really miss Jim.". He was the best.

[cedarkey59]

War Eagle and TOUCHDOWN AUBURN still not the same without Jim. He will always be in our thoughts and our

hearts during every game. Win or lose, he will always be the ONE CONSTANT. WAR EAGLE!!!!!

[sunbaneglasses]

I miss that guy so much on football saturdays. The best ever, period. If only I could have heard him call the 04 season.:(

[wildbilly49]

Jim Fyffe WAS the voice for Auburn. When I hear him even now it brings a tear to my eye as I am sure it does all of the Auburn family. He is still calling Auburn games in Heaven I bet.

[auburn4wins]

As a broadcast journalism major, Jim and I were on a first name basis. He was one of my biggest role models. I listened to him religiously. I can't tell you how sad I was when I found out he died. Nobody will ever be able to come close to Jim's qualities.

"TOUCHDOWN AUBURN!"

Gosh, if only he'd lived to see our 2004 season...

[diggertrucks]

Jim was great. I barely missed TV in 1993. Touchdown Auburn!

[theonlyjbarrs]

im a bama fan but jim fyffe is a great guy he'll be missed

[sjdawsonjr1]

no one can compare to jim...war eagle!

[johnmfaggard]

war eagle jim

[sxw]

I used to watch Auburn on tv and turn the volume down, and listen to the Fyffe do the broadcast on radio. It won't ever be the same.

[parke257]

I was the same way.

[olebamaboy]

"TOUCHDOWN AUBURN!!!!" No one says it better than Jim Fyffe did. We miss you.

[Cruise2enjoy]

HE WAS SIMPLY ONE OF THE ALL TIME BEST IN MY OPINION...Thank you for posting..WHAT A VOICE!

WAR EAGLE

[aubraves24]

true class act, will always be remember.

[adamryan1121]

there will never be another one like him. he may have been from kentucky but he was auburn through and through. touchdown auburn!
