Honestly curious as a thread on tSECrant caught my attention. Tbird in particular was very down on Waco. I currently live here and have for 2 years and while I understand that Waco is no DFW, Houston, Austin, or even in some ways B/CS, I don't think it's the dump that many have made it out to be? I didn't know if this was a Baylor thing, more of a personal preference thing or what. I've been to B/CS quite a few times and while I can understand that the younger crowd would probably prefer it there, I think young families-older folks would probably prefer Waco.

TIA

Not a fan of Waco. Out of respect I won't talk shite about your home.

I believe tbird has a sister attending Baylor, so he probably has a different perspective than most on Waco.

For 80 to 90% of us, Waco=Baylor, a truly despicable school. Hence the hate the unkind words from A&M fans.

A&M and Baylor have a long history. We've been whipping their arse in sports for a century.

Back when A&M was an all male college they used to take take the girls from Baylor. The men at Baylor didn't take too kindly to it.

There was also the year where Baylor killed an Aggie with a chair in a brawl at halftime. A&M loaded up a cannon and was headed to destroy Waco that night before being stopped by some rangers. They stopped the series for a few years after that.

We stole their live bear mascot a few times.

More recently they blamed and sued A&M for the Big 12's near implosion.

Overall I gotta say not only do I dislikes Baylor, but I don't even respect them. The rivalry with tu is heated, but ultimately I can respect their school, programs, & a large portion of their alumni.

I don't think Waco is a dump and don't hate Baylor like many on here

But I'm a southern Baptist so I have many friends that are in various ministries that attended Baylor. So I know more than just the football side of things.

Waco has some really nice parts (one being Baylor's campus) and really ghetto parts in my limited experience going there.

As far as Baylor goes that rivalry goes back a long time. It was fairly dormant when I went to school (07) until we both got good at hoops around the same time. Those were great games. Then they sued us to keep the Big 12 together, which pretty much sums up Baylor as a school and the average Baylor alum IMO.

I saw a Baylor fan almost get in a fight here in Auburn last night, as he's walking away he looks right at me, eyes wide in rage, and yells f--- you aggie everyone here hates you.

Take it for what you will. He was also slobering over himself he was so drunk

For starters, let me say that when I lived in Waco, it was never Waco "proper." My family lived in Bruceville/Eddy while I was in high school, as my dad's final military assignment was with the BU ROTC program.

I actually had an application to Baylor completed and waiting to be submitted before I got word that I'd qualified to be automatically admitted to TAMU. Would have been at their business school.

My being down on Waco has less to do with Baylor and more to do with the vibe. Just never felt comfortable there. Some of my family liked it, though, obviously. One of my sisters is a junior there right now and it's a perfect fit for her. Different strokes, I guess.

Baylor hates us going back to the first half of the 20th century when our cadets used to steal their wommenz.

The fact that we're something like 24-2-1 against them since 1985 probably doesn't help either.

I'd rather live in a desert in the middle East then in Waco.

Waco police are murderous fricks. Waco Police supports rape. South Waco looks like an abandoned Communist shite pit. The locals are miserable douche bags.

Waco and Baylor show the prime example of the hypocrite Christian culture that stems from the US.

Congratulations on the good job though I'm happy for you. Just stay safe. Remember meth heads will break into you house kill you and live there while your bodies rot under the bed.

Even when I was a little kid I thought Waco was a dump. Once I got to A&m I realized Baylor was trash too
