I am still livid we allowed an opponent's live mascot in Ford.

Me too, and by the fact that nobody seemed to care that the Aggie Cub Scout could have really hurt a player in the process. DanFreibergerForHeisman is right about the mascot. Does anyone else bring a live mascot into GJFord? If that wasn't prohibited before, I hope it is now.

Do Miss State's, Georgia's and Tennessee's dog mascots go on the road?

I have a pic of the aTm Collie (which was beautiful) at Bryant Denny - I can't get it to post. However, Aubie does not bring their War Buzzard (it would get shot down) - it just depends on the school/opponent.

And even more aggravating, we all know full well how it would've gone down were the roles reversed. Say a peruna handler shoved an aggy to (well, save the aggy from peruna). RGT would have issued an apology, the AAC would have created a rule banning all live mascots, peruna would've been relegated to watching fr atop the grassy knoll, and the headline would have been "smu student apologizes for assault on aggy, to take sensitivity classes"

Prediction of a Texas A&M Corps of Cadets member Ryan Kreider quote during his first day of
wearing new senior boots:

Smells like it...
Tastes like it...
Sure glad I didn't get my boots in it. :shock:

or an aggie shoving a Mustang cheerleader, and brandishing a weapon?

Yeah, not so much of an apology...

I know there was a discussion at the time between conference rules and NCAA rules regarding live mascots.

I am pretty sure the conclusion was our administration didn't have the "spine" to tell Aggy no on their doggie, which is just wrong in so many ways.

Aggy would never allow Peruna in their stadium these days.

If we want to be big boys, we need to act like big boys.

I think I remember seeing 13 E- V 0 at the Cotton Bowl once or twice at SMU not OU games.

I've seen both UGA and Bully at away games. As I have less desire to kick Tennessee's mutt across a room, I don't notice it.

Back in 2012, Texas brought Bevo to Oxford for their game against Ole Miss. Pretty sure Aggy brought Reveille (heard she asked for asylum). The only ones, at least in the SEC, that I don't think travel at all are Mike the Tiger (LSU) and Arkansas' pig.

He was going to apologize to SMU for getting his [deleted] kicked?


Dear TAMA Alumni and Students,

Despite being armed with a sword, I managed to get beat up on national TV by a cheerleader (that I attacked). Next time, I will pick a fight with someone I can beat like the lead soprano in the Children's Choir.

Corp Guy.

Noticed another article-cult-Johnny Manziel returns home for first time to thank fans and sign autographs. If you waited in the sun for 3 hours and paid between $125-155 dollars you got an autograph!!! [deleted]

People who join the Corp of Cadets are like those who vote Green Party or who cut their sideburns way above their ears. Never trust them, and be afraid.
