In August 2024, an Auburn fan going by the name "Chase Fralick's Burner" on X (formerly Twitter) made a bold and unusual promise. The fan declared they would insert their hand into a Solo cup filled with dog feces if the Florida Gators' quarterback competition was unsatisfactory over the summer. This pledge follows in the tradition of similar high-stakes bets, notably the "FSU Poop Guy" incident from earlier that year involving a bet on the Florida State University football team's loss to Boston College.
As game day approached for an upcoming match between Florida and Auburn, Fralick faced scrutiny after failing to fulfill his promise. The post garnered attention due to its extreme nature, reminiscent of previous high-profile social media bets in college football rivalries. Despite some initial reluctance from the bettor, he continued engaging on X regarding what came to be known as "Staplegate," but without providing any proof or evidence of having completed the act.
The incident highlights the passionate and sometimes over-the-top nature of fan engagement during heated rivalries between major college football programs like those in the SEC. The outcome remains uncertain for Fralick, who now faces pressure from fellow fans to follow through on his extraordinary commitment.
