Payton Thorne, Auburn Quarterback, didn’t have the best season with the Auburn Tigers in 2023. That being said, I believe that’s all going to change very soon.
You see, the Talladega Superspeedway isn’t just some run down track in the middle of Talladega, Alabama. It’s a haven, an oasis and a place that will change you if you haven’t experienced anything like it before. I am not aware of Payton Thorne’s life experience but I can promise you he’s never seen something like ‘Dega.
It has me thinking: is Payton Thorne about to go on a Heisman run? Maybe not. However, his chances go WAY up by being reborn on that speedway this weekend.
He’s pictured at ‘Dega hanging out with Auburn tight end, Luke Deal. He’s got a Miller Lite, the champagne of beers and a shirt with a screeching bald eagle and American flag on it while smoking a stogie. I am not exactly sure if the cigar is subliminal messaging that he wants all the smoke, but I am going to read it that way.
He looks posed and ready to have the best season of his career with Auburn in 2024 and that is all thanks to the Talladega Superspeedway.
