its crazy all the comments in those videos are Aggies saying how amazing their traditions are.

Thats the definition of a cult- thinking your way is the only way and everyone is jealous of you, meanwhile the rest of the world is laughing at you

This is proof right here, that the best traditions in the world cannot produce championships. Have fun with your tradition.

You can’t deny that it’s a pretty unique tradition though, let’s be real

Be careful not to fall into the trap of using the word "tradition" in the same way that Aggie uses it.

"Tradition" is not necessarily just a repeated behavior. That's called a "custom".

Aggie is big on customs that stem from its all-male college days.

Tradition can be a hundred things in addition to yelling "oy" if you're Australian.

Aggie is big on customs. It can look cultish to outsiders, but calling it tradition is somewhat myopic.

The weird cult that is TAMU is funny but its the obsession with TAMU fans to try and gaslight people into thinking the cult is cool that is hilarious.

Some things are unique for a reason.

Great traditions are usually copied elsewhere.

It IS tradition. Our school was an all-male military school from the 1870s all the way to 1964. The yell leader tradition is over 100 years old. There have been slightly different variations of the yell over the decades, but the overall essence of it has remained the same.

You’d be surprised at how well protected Reveille is. They guard that dog like it’s their kid.
A&M is totally not a cult

I’ll bet you $1,000 that Elko will get us at least 1 deep run in the CFB playoff while he’s here. His recruiting class for next year is already top 10. His play calling abilities are heads and shoulders above Jimbo’s abilities.
