Toomer’s Eagles Return to their Homes

This blogle was PG (Pre-Golesh or Pre-Great Hacking of April 2026), so it may not look great. Help me out and send me a message if you notice anything that's off.

After years of vandalism, erosion, toilet papering, etc., the stone eagles at Toomer’s needed a little work. Thanks to The Lathan Company, whom I’ve been lucky enough to meet on a few occasions (Las Vegas, tailgates, etc), these birds are as shiny and new as ever. Today, they returned to their perch where they have stood for over 50 years.

Here’s a little video about the whole process, with footage of the eagles taking their spots earlier today.

And War Eagle to you, Mr. British/Scottish/Irish stonemason.

    Thanks for posting this. Wondered what was going on. I’ve always loved those eagles, even if they have always been overshadowed by the Toomer’s oak trees.
