Title: I'll Take It!
Post by: Townhallsavoy on January 22, 2014, 12:42:55 AM
Reddit's #1 link for a while was about Auburn's Foy answering service.  Nothing but people commenting on how awesome it was that they could call that number, ask an outlandish or stupid question, and get an effort to find the answer.  A bunch of Auburn people commenting about how much they love going to school there.

Reddit deleted the thread though because it included the phone number in the title and Foy was getting swamped with calls for hours.

Surprised people are still amazed by this in the Google age.

Was much more impressive in the 70s, 80s, & 90s.
