Excellent story, Vol.
My first indelible memory of aggiedom and its peculiar UT obsession was from my freshman year at UT. The horns did pretty well, ranking in the top ten most of the year, but dropped the aggie game and ended up in the Sun Bowl rather than the Sugar Bowl. A&M didn't win **** that year, aside from the Texas game.
During the spring semester, I went to visit some high school friends who had gone to A&M. When I got to the campus, I saw posters, bumper stickers etc. plastered all over the place saying "From gumbo to tacos" with the aggie- Texas score.
Everywhere.
This was in April.
By the way, the aggie campus circa 1979 was ghastly.
