Hands down the award winner is the vistors locker room in BDS. The Fail Room.

If the Smokie Mountains can count, then for LSU it's the Mississippi River.

That is the one thing that has struck me about the Bonfire tragedy--that 12 people passed, given how 12 is such an important number in A&M lore.


During Fish Orientation. We had an old administrator (I think), I don't remember his name either. He tells the story of the tragedy and their was a student who refused to be rescued until everyone was rescued before him. It was a pretty emotional part of the day in the whole orientation process. Afterwards to lighten it up (I guess) he told the process that the students went to RED, White, Blue Kyle Field.

As far as A&M we don't have any really cool outstanding building, for "Red Dawn" could actually be filmed here.

Evans Library..... This place looks like a stronghold and if I was going to pick a place to hide during a Zombie Apocolaypse this is where I will be.


This is the O&M building, and if you see the radar rotating you probably have 10-20mins to find cover from rain.


This one is Rudder Tower


This one is the Academic Building and looks alright.


This one is the Animal Industry building and is haunted. Some guy appearntly slipped and cut his femoral artery during a test. Cool side note is inside they have all the Major Texas ranch brands and style of barbed-wire fence designs from the 1800's.


This one has the Campus Meat Market.


That was my quick tour of AggieLand hope y'all enjoyed it!!!!!

The one thing this thread has taught me is that A&M might just have a worse campus than UGA

No kidding. I've been to that part of TX before, but didn't really go to the campus. Jesus, what a bland bunch of nothingness. Looks like pics of a college built in the Middle East... flat dirt with nondescript, square concrete buildings.

I'm not sure but it could be my biceps. Just a guess though. Or one of my old blow straws

Wasn't flaming. I did a double take when I saw the pick with grass. Last time I'd seen it that space was still a parking lot.
