The One With the Aggies

Well, this post has been a LONG time coming! Eh...only a week, but STILL! For some reason tonight, I can't seem to fall asleep, so I thought, "Hmmm, I'll do something semi-productive with me time and finally make a new post!"

Last Saturday I was....are you ready for this...at an Aggie football game. Yes, I know! Diana's father was nice enough to invite me to a game, so I figured, "Why not?" Answer to that question still to come.

Have you ever been to an Aggie game? Do you know anything about the Aggies? 'Cuz they are NUTS!!!! Seriously. I could tell you stories for days about reasons the Catholic church has them listed as a cult. :-) Hee hee hee. ANYWAY!

I have to admit that I was bored out of my mind. Really. My brain oozed out of my ear, called a cab (with MY cell phone...audacious.), and hauled it out of the stadium. Plus, there weren't enough seats for everyone, so I had this rather large smelly gentleman sitting in my lap the entire game.



Fine, maybe it just felt that way. Point is, it was CRAMPED! It also went into triple overtime.

TRIPLE!!!!!

That's 3. At which point I started eating the gum off the bottom of the seats in the vain hope that one would be carrying a fast-acting, terrorrist-style neurotoxin to put me out of my misery. Alas....nothing except for a nasty taste in my mouth.

All that having been said, let me give you a little taste of the life of the Aggies...I got video.

In this first video, look at the side of the stadium across from us. That sea of maroon is the ENTIRE student body. Yes, they ALL come out to every single game, no matter the weather or any other circumstance. And that overwhelming noise? That's them yelling. Not a whole of thinking going on, just yelling...



This second video is of the Aggie band. They march with military precision and though their shows are not very creative, they ARE impressive. Check it yo...
