Wikipedia says that Tarpy started going to games in 2004. My only visit to Floyd Casey was in 1991, and it was packed (with Aggies).


Yeah I've wondered about that as well. I went in '77 (UH screwed up scheduling so '75 and '76 were both at Kyle) and the place was packed or nearly so. Granted, mostly by Aggies.

I really do think that significant part of Baylor being so pissed at us leaving (aside from fearing the collapse of the Big12) was that A&M fans often went en masse to Waco and packed their house. 7 of the top 10 attendances at Floyd Casey were A&M games. That's a bunch of lost revenue that the average game against a TCU or WVU is not going to make up for.
