    Heck, I'm 45 and that's exactly how I reacted [​IMG]

    I'm with Longhorn Catholic.
    That vid looked pretty normal to me except most of us don't have dorm hallways to run out into.

    I know exactly how they felt.

    I was lucky enough to watch the last part of the game during my break at work. My manager had to come back and tell me to stfu [​IMG]

    Hahaha, nice. Looked like Jester to me, too. Has it really been almost 20 years since I was a freshman? *sigh*

    We had a really close game at Texas Stadium vs. SMU in '83. I remember Jester being pretty much exactly like that when we sacked McIlheney in the end zone. The whole place shook. Sang The Eyes in the cafeteria that night with everyone standing on their chairs except for a couple freshmen who required a little extra motivation. [​IMG]

    Oilfield,

    That must be the year we kicked three FGs and won 9-7.

    Coming out of Texas Stadium I had an SMU student get in myface about our inability to score a touchdown. I had to remind him that 3 x 3 is 9, and 9 beats 7 every day.

    I was in business school for my second UT degree when James Brown rolled left and we were throwing furniture in the complex pool and going berserk.

    aggy would tell you that it's a dorm at Texas State or UTSA, since all Longhorn fans never went to UT.

    Definitely Jester. Not a damn thing is different from when I was there in 1994/1995. Even the mini fridge/microwave is the same exact model. I reacted the exact same way they did and I'm 33, and I went from sober to drunk in just the 4th quarter.

    My room in Moore Hill was exactly the same setup (I think) so it could be there.

    Definitely Jester. I was there in '78 - '79.

    They have a better TV though.

    Definitely Jester. I can almost smell the "history" of that place.

    I lived there in 2005 but thank God was given a first floor room and my own bathroom.

    I remember watching the Astros win the NL Pennant and running up and down the dorm hallway screaming. I love it.

    that is Jester. the skinny window with that odd concrete surrounding it gives it away. 1992-1993 seems like a long time ago but at times it seems like yesterday.

    Now on a seperate note I was lucky to get 3 stations on rabbit ears in that concrete beast.

    I was at a game watching party for the 96 game and we jumped into the apartment complex pool and the neighbor downstairs called the cops on us. The cops were cool and told the neighbor to chill out!
