What A Weird Bunch

I don't want to know why and I don't want to find out

He’s as obsessed with Bama as an auburn fan.

I recently found out that they didn't become fully co-ed until like the early 70s. It explains a lot when it comes to the weird shite they do. If all the stupid things me and my friends did in college when we weren't distracted by girls became Alabama "traditions" everyone would think we're a bizarre cult too. Like, oh look here's the traditional get ripped as frick and see who can eat the most Taco Casa before they puke tradition. And over here is the traditional mega beer funnel that starts on the roof. Now as the third quarter begins we see the student section pull out their duct tape and bottles of malt liquor as they begin to play the traditional game of Edward Fortyhands.

I’m very aware. My point is that it was a classless statement.

They are a bizarre bunch. "Midnight Yell Practice". I've seen where they have those and it's more of a pep rally and their "Yell Leaders" talk a lot of smack about Bama. I've known/worked with some A&M alums and while they seemed OK, they all acted like A&M is Princeton academically and has the most beautiful campus on the planet (News flash! It's pretty underwhelming).

I've been to almost every SEC campus (have not been to Kentucky) and honestly, A&M's campus is probably dead last in terms of charm. I think Mississippi State actually has a nicer campus.

Kind of a funny story about A&M not being co-ed until the early 70's. I think it was in 1968, the ADs from A&M and Texas were at a Southwest Conference AD meeting and the Texas AD asked the A&M AD, "When are you going to start admitting women?" and the A&M AD replied, "About the same time you start admitting men."

My father in law who passed a few years ago was an Aggie alum and Vietnam vet. He was part of the alumni association for decades. Loved the Aggies and the education he got which, made him a Multimillionaire in the oil business. He never spoke about the traditions much but he loved the school and what it gave him. He attributed most of his success to the school. I did his finances when he passed and I can concur he was well off. So at least AM is putting out smart, well rounded patriots into this world. I’ll give them that.
