Prove given what facts? You are retarded--this is all conjecture and opinion here. The 12th Man is a tradition rooted deep at A&M that speaks for itself and has impressed the cfb world on numerous occasions.

You're just cantankerous right now


But they want you to blindly diminish and degrade your opinions about your traditions because they don't like them, and it makes them mad you're proud of them.

Well, apparently it didn't impress the people making the list either.

That 2010 Nebraska game, those dickhead brother coaches even mentioned how it was distracting during timeouts. And it aint easy.


I was so exhausted after that game. Sweat through 3 layers of clothing on a cold night, and honestly didn't have anything left at the end.

I've been to several Army-Navy games. And I'll be making my first trip to Kyle Field this upcoming season. After that I will make my final judgment and you will all accept it.

Looking forward to your write up. Take plenty of pictures.

I already told you--your reaction was to become cantankerous. Irascible, if you will. War Eagle feathers ruffled. Jimmies slightly rustled.

I'm not trying to diminish anything. You stated that the 12th man is the greatest tradition in college football. I asked for the reason why. You failed to give adequate reasoning to defend your claim IMO.

You are welcome to try again though. Sad thing is, I'm not even having to defend one of my school's traditions. I'm arguing for a traditionn I have zero connection to.

always wanted to go to one.

when i was stationed in Orlando going to school we had some Army barracks on base for MPs mostly. Every year, the night before the game the base Commander would have the navy band play Anchors Aweigh outside of their barracks for hours til 5 or 6 in the morning.

All flaming/trolling aside, I hope you have a great time, man. I'd give my left arm to be able to afford to go to that game and experience what is sure to be one of the wildest atmoshperes in Kyle Field history. Win or lose, you're in for a treat.

If you run into my little brother, tell him I said to buy you a beer on Northgate

ive only posted a few times in this 8 page thread...youre thinkin of someone else.

I ahve yet to witness the 12th man so I have no opinoin of it...hence apathy is the best way to describe it.

Again. You denied the premise. We are the only fan base that stands the entire game. You believe this not to be true. If you can't accept the premise, why are you the one telling me to try again? You are the one in disbelief, not me.

Your opinion. Important qualifier.

Because we don't care about your traditions. Apparently nobody in this thread does enough to challenge them.

So what does that make you?

I probably will meet him. My brother is kinda famous there. He's taken over ever since he moved to Bryan. Pretty typical for a Gump to do so

Well, you aren't the only student section to stand the entire game (not just SEC) so the premise is blatantly false. BUT, if it were true, what makes that the qualifier for it to be the best tradition?
