Sorry aggies
No need to apologize for some other jackass, but thanks for the thought.

My skin has gotten a little thicker in the last 11 years, and I don't expect anyone else to understand or care about our traditions, but it always surprises when someone thinks they're being clever by trying to make a funny haw haw about something that involved young people dying. I'm sure they're a blast at parties.



Dude, that's the thing, IMHO, the Texas A&M
12th man, Reveille, Aggie War Hymn (love it),and especially, the Bonfire ARE college football.

Fans of other schools may make fun of other schools traditions, but it actuality, they are acknowledging them. Every great football school has great traditions. I like them all, A&M's included.

I agree that was classless (I did not see the post); but any post like that shows the immaturity and (lack of) intelligence of the poster.

I really cannot agree more with the above statement Let's face it, at the end of the day, an education is an education--what really makes American universities and college football so unique are the cultures and traditions of the different campuses. I'm a Michigan fan as well, and as much as I hate ohio state, even I stand in awe as their band does script ohio for the millionth time. During our game with Nebraska, every husker fan I encountered to a person said our "Sawing Varsity's Horns Off" routine was one of the most impressive things they've ever witnessed at a game.

Can't tell you how excited I am to see an old rivalry like LSU-A&M rekindled not just because it brings some of the hate back, but really allows a new generation of students and fans to experience what makes the other institution great.
