Auburn basketball is ranked No. 5 in the country, but is coming off of a tough overtime win over a bad Mississippi State team and a road loss to Tennessee. Should the Tigers make a run through the SEC Tournament, a No. 1 seed during March Madness is still within reach, but a lot of dominoes need to fall.

The road to a top seed in the NCAA Tournament starts with a win in their final game of the regular season at home this afternoon. Auburn is hosting South Carolina and is expected to play in front of a sold-out crowd.

Prior to the game, the student section and faithful fans lined up outside of Auburn Arena more than two hours before the gates opened. While in line, the first 5,000 fans were given foam fingers to wear in the game.

However, the foam fingers have a peculiar design.

From the front, it looks mostly like a basketball being spun on top of the finger. The blue text and outlines make it clear as to what they are.

 

That is not the case from the back.

When you flip the foam fingers over, showing the side without any markings, they look like the anatomy of a male. They are extremely phallic in their shape.

Once you see it, you will never unsee it. Even when you flip it back over to the side with the outline.

The design is hilarious. War Eagle!
