I never wear it. I find myself having to take it off a lot, so it became a hassle.

But I do appreciate the ring whenever I wear an A&M shirt and someone tells me that if they were Ags, they'd wear the shite out of it .

I stop wearing mine because I went from tiny to large after college.

Resize it bro. Balfour will do it free as long as you didn’t have another jeweler mess with it. Well technically $10 or so to cover shipping but that’s it.

Yes. Pretty much just social outings or games.

It's even better than that, or it was ~10 years ago. I needed mine upsized more than they could do, so they provided me with a completely new ring, no charge! I was blown away by that.

If I take mine off it is very difficult to get back on, so I don’t take it off unless I have to - wakeboarding or working on something mechanical where it makes my hand not fit (for instance I took it off while changing the belt on my truck). Otherwise - shite, shower, sleep, sex: it’s on.

So have you even noticed that you and texag7 have a stalker?

Guy is seriously unhinged and has been stalking y’all for a while now


I definitely recommend you make sure your home alarm is turned on at night these days

Yeah. He’s been around for some time. I just ignore him. He wants attention.

I wasn't allowed to wear my ring on active duty in the warehouse where I worked, so even now when I work, my ring lives in the miniature Kyle Field replica on my desk

I take it off for working out, sex, and sleeping, too.

I went from medium sized to large. Ring is just more secured now.

I wear wedding and Aggie rings on left hand. Noticed last week that they had started to cut pretty gnarly grooves into each other. I lost one Aggie Ring in 2007, but the replacement is finally catching up.

Take it off to cook (chicken fried backstrap and making hamburger patties, for example) and watersports. That's it.

When I was a cadet, I met Frank Cox several times. I was always surprised (disappointed?) at how his ring looks brand new after 40 years. Its a different philosophy. He loves his, so he babies it and takes care of it. He won't even put his hand in his blue jeans pocket with his ring on his finger because he doesn't want even that amount of wear on it.

I see it differently. I do everything with mine on because I love it and want to wear it out.
