In the late 1990s, syndicated radio talk host Jim Rome and his producer, Travis Rodgers, stayed in a hotel that was populated by Auburn alumni and other faithful. Rome mentioned on the air how he saw people greeting each other with "War Eagle". Within minutes, callers to Rome's show began signing off their calls with "War Eagle", presumably because it sounded iconoclastic in the parts of the country that are unfamiliar with SEC football.
Callers, emailers and texters to the Jim Rome show now often end their call/email/text with "War (something they like)." For instance, after a typical call you might hear "War the Lakers beating the Celtics" from a caller from Los Angeles.
