I also remember vividly as the Texas Band played Amazing Grace at Kyle Field while raising Aggie flags
I didn't find out until after the game (was in the Aggie Band at the time), but when we did the "silent T", no one watching on TV saw, because the fricktards at ABC only showed the t.u. band.

Forgot about the Silent T, that was very powerful at the time as well. So many things. Seeing the stack of Aggie Rings piled up in that video where folks left them at the site was something else I had almost forgotten.
Only football game I have cried at and I was in tears several times during that game. One of the hardest things was knowing that Bonfire was gone forever. They have the off campus Bonfire of course but it isn't remotely the same. It was one of the things that truly made A&M unique and brought the campus and alumni together like nothing else. Took me a few years before I could even go back to the Memorial and I still haven't been able to watch "The Burning Desire".
