Auburn football: Bo Nix is focused and having fun with new t-shirts
Well, Auburn football fans, it’s no longer just a meme. Everyone’s favorite mantra is now available to buy on a t-shirt, made possible by the man himself, Bo Nix.
Since the Tigers’ 2021 A-Day game, the infamous phrase has traveled to the far corners of the Twitterverse and escaped into the Auburn community. Fans know the phrase by heart, and Auburn center Nick Brahms even mentioned during a press conference that Nix was having fun.
Now, Auburn football quarterback Bo Nix, the center of the whole meme, has made it his own for two noble causes, Mercy Deliverance Ministries and the GoFundMe for teammate Luke Deal’s father:
Nix wrote in his Instagram caption that Mercy Deliverance Ministries “is tackling food insecurity by bringing healthy food to people who live in food deserts here in Alabama. Food insecurity can lead to health problems and it contributes to cycles of generational poverty.”
The other cause he will donate to is the GoFundMe for Auburn football tight end Luke Deal’s father, who was diagnosed with ALS. Auburn Center Nick Brahms started the fundraiser to help the Deal family with medical expenses, and so far over $67,000 has been raised.
The words “Focused. Having fun.” appear on several clothing options, from t-shirts to hoodies, in addition to Nix’s signature and #10. According to Nix’s Instagram post, the shirts will only be available until the Georgia game. He invited fans who purchase a shirt to post a photo to their own Instagram and tag him so he can share the photos.
Nix, in partnership with BreakingT, has come up with a great way to combine charity and the Auburn family’s favorite meme. Fans can purchase shirts at this link until October 9, 2021.
