Harvey "Al" Updyke was arrested this morning. That's him on the far right in this picture, wearing the bama ballcap. The fella in the visor is his good buddy, Howard Wayne Barnes. Updyke currently resides in a home that lists Barnes as the owner. Barnes posts under the name "FLORIBAMA" on the Tider Insider forums. Interestingly enough, FLORIBAMA posted the following:
I was referring to Al from Dadeville's remarks to Finebaum you dumb sh!t. If you are going to lose your sense of humor and your sense of exactly where you are posting, I would suggest you GTFO.
Here is LSUfreek's take on the incident: AGRITAR: THE AUBURN POISON TREES EPIC ILLUSTRATED - Every Day Should Be Saturday
An arrest has been made. The guy looks like he'd be a Bama fan. FoxNews.com - Arrest Made in Deliberate Poisoning of Historic Auburn University Oak Trees
I would have around the clock guards on the bear's statue. The auburn payback will be bad. It's beyond stupid what happened to auburn's trees and some dumb azz will do something to pay back Alabama. The bad thing is it wasn't bama that did this. It was the stupidity of one person. I can see a civil war in Alabama where these fools take turns tearing each others most prized things up. This is beyond stupid and makes all of us sec fans look bad. Just keep it in Alabama. Stay away from mike!
You sound close to volunteering for the job. I like the idea of complete neutrality and transparency. Just the thought of all that purple and gold protecting Coach Bryant gives you a real warm feeling of SEC togetherness.
Wow, I was expecting a 20 something year old. I hope this guy isn't sombody's Paw Paw. This dude just put his whole family in danger. Biggest display of neckism ever. His family should gtfo of Alabama for good. Gotta think an Auburn neck will try and top that.
