It is the finest facility in college football and usually the largest crowd in the SEC.

#9 Endowment at $9.75 Billion
#24 Research funding at $675 million
#1 Athletic Revenue at $192 million
#3 Average home attendance in 2015 at 103,622

I don't think we are all that worried about paying our bills.

Y'all are still paying off a $15 million loan from the school (how that was legal, who knows) because you couldn't pay your light bill about 7 or 8 years ago.

Never say never, aggy.

In the near future our SEC Network payout will make your Longwhorn Network payments look like a pittance.

I can't believe a Texas fan posted this.

Y'all really have a mental block about the disaster called the LHN.

Don't let the aggies pull one over on you they can't even afford their pathetic coaches buyout.


We are better off than the dirt poor Sooners who couldn't afford stadium upgrades even half as expensive as ours years later.

Damn. I never thought anybody would give Randolph Duke a run for biggest dewsh, but there you go.

Thanks for being the poster child for what Aggies refer to when we tell people they want no part of the whorn stink in this conference.

I forgot about that . I guess the Mexican Cartels have undercut that homebrewed trailer park meth. Times are tough in the trailer park.

It looked like on TV you had a LOT of the individual seats (seat backs and arm rests). That's pretty sweet. What percentage of the seats would you say are of this kind as opposed to just plain benches?


I may have missed something but AFAIK that's just on the north and west sides, first three decks. So maybe 1/4 of the total capacity. I haven't sat in one in two games attended because they're uber-expensive on stubhub and other resale sites. Students clearly don't need them because they stand the entire game. The good news is the benches have plenty of room even for my big old butt.

You're a damned liar. The hotel tax is supposed to raise $40 million over 30 years, the student fee $75 million over 30 years and then there's the case of the $350 million worth of 30-YEAR-bonds. Your shite just unraveled before your eyes.


Randolph? Is that you?
