Tbqh, I never viewed the yells as being meant to intimidate. Other than "Bus Driver," they're rarely actually directed at the opposition. More about just loud, coordinated support for the Ags.
As far as "Horse Laugh," I think the hissing tradition is fun, but ultimately pretty hokey. Never understood how it's supposedly "classier" than booing. The intent is the same, it's just harder to hear/officials opponents don't really ever understand what's going on Also kinda weird some can yell "SOUNDS LIKE HELL!" but clutch pearls over booing/profanity.
I was wondering if I'd feel different about the environment when I brought kids to Kyle Field, but honestly I didn't. Maybe partly because Aggiebelle and I both cuss like sailors semi-regularly, but also because I simply expect some edgy stuff in a sports stadium environment. People of all ages are there--I think it's silly to expect the same behavior from geeked up college students letting loose at a high stakes football game as I'd expect when taking my kids to see something like PAW Patrol Live!
