I felt like all the noise came from the A&M student section sideline. I sat in an all Ags section and nobody around me did any of the cheers except for the war hymn and the one where everyone bends over and starts singin. They only started yelling and making noise on 3rd downs


The yells typically do only come from the students.

The only time you'll really hear anyone else doing yells is at the end of the Spirit of Aggieland.

I can't speak to other sections, but 519 was moderately loud on 1st & 2nd, and pretty loud on 3rd downs.

I agree with everything you said except the seats. I had the worst seats in the house on the top row of the endzone but didn't mind the view at all.

No, you didn't.

Section 149 and 100, which are the other visitor sections, are 15 yards behind the end zone and you face the south endzone seats. From 149 and 100, you really can't see the field and have to watch the game on the TV. The only redeeming thing about those seats is that you can go down behind the bleachers and lay on the grass and watch the game on the TV. Also directly in front of them is a small concession stand and some portapotties under the bleachers.

The seats at the top of The Zone are not nearly as bad as those, other than the 30 minute hike up the ramps, the pleasing smell from our resident bat population and the steep hike up the aisle to your seat. But at least once there you can see the game.

No I'm aware of that awful design. I meant I was on the top row the farthest from the field. I had a buddy warn me against buying lower bowl seats.

That reminds me. It truly smelled like farm animal shite walking down the concourse from the 500s after the game. Not sure what that was about.

The smell was the Mexican Free Tailed bats, a protected species so we're stuck with them.

El Paso would have been over your right shoulder

It really depends on where you are as far as getting the full effect of the noise, really weird acoustics in Kyle.

We have been told in the past how weird we are and would mostly be disappointed if anybody thought different. Aggies take pride in doing things our own way. All the traditions are tied together and mean something to those that understand.

Glad yall had fun, had a couple tigers around me that represented you well.
