My Experience in College Station

I've got time to sit down finally, so I thought I'd give my experience in Aggieland as an LSU student.

After hearing so much from my brother (a senior at A&M) and other Aggies about how friendly everyone is in College Station, I have to admit I was disappointed with my arrival. My first day in College Station while walking to my car, a couple people shout "frick you LSU". Doesn't offend me, but not all that nice either. So when I meet my brother and his friends for dinner, I joke about how Aggies aren't as nice as they say they are. My brother's friends, however, give me a speech about what can I expect, I'm just an a-hole LSU fan... Yeah, because walking to my car implies many frick you faggies.

I sat in the Aggie student section for the game, and things didn't improve at all. I, an LSU student and fan, participated in their sawing off of UT's horns (one of their pregame rituals) in good spirit. I hate UT, so really I enjoyed it too. Once the game started, however, some Aggie fans turned horrible. Had to hear "suck my..." the entire first quarter, got yelled at for telling people off for booing and disrespecting our injured players but was prowptly scolded for pointing out dives that Aggies took. Somehow got yelled at for bad calls for refs, as if I did it. Had to endure hearing Aggies threaten to kill Eric Reid after his late hit. Got taunted to "geaux home". Some jackass even yelled at my girlfriend for asking him to stop screaming in her ear.

In fact, I saw nothing that made me think they were the nice guys of the SEC until after the game. I think the only difference between Aggies and other schools is they aren't as sore losers as most of us. They're very trigger happy on the trash talk before the game or for the short time they're ahead, but once you respond with some of your own, you're called a trashy Louisianian. Frustrates me beyond belief both that they have such falsely high opinions of themselves, and their blatant hypocrisy.

tl;dr version: Aggies seem very hypocritical and thin skinned. Will dish trash talk but whine about how bad LSU fans are when you give it back. Present themselves as the nice guys of the SEC, but don't live up to expectations. I wouldn't care about getting taunted, cursed at, etc. if they didn't follow it up by saying what class acts they are and what horrible a fan base I'm associated with. In my opinion, this makes Aggies some of the worst fans in the SEC. Will never make the trip back unless I'm with a horde of LSU fans and I can keep the socializing with Aggies down to near zero.
