In! That's awesome to see. Conrad and Brasher were in my line. Those names are etched in my memory

Fall 88 was the first year DG was a girls dorm. I was In Moses 88-91 and that name or pot doesn't ring any bells to me. I want to say there was a guy with the last name of Brasher or Brashear maybe? But I thought his name was Bill, not Simon. And I think he was not former DG.
You might look up JD Young who was my roommate in 90 and yellow pot for Moses in 91. He might know who that belonged to.
DG was still a male dorm in fall of 88. I was a freshman that semester and knew guys who lived in DG. It became a female dorm the fall of 89... I lived in DG that fall.
I wonder how far a pot full of red & yellow got ya.

I was a Crew Chief in Moore 87. Our pots were white with a yellow stripe. Also had corps stack but no CT ever messed with it
I was in DG 85-87 4th floor. Older brother was in DG 84-exiled to Moses. My younger brother was is Moses and roomed with the older bro.
Man we had fun...
Good luck on finding the pot owner. Good Bull!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane....

Everyone knows Bonfire was primarily built by Puryear playboys so this was probably ornamental.
I was in Moses Hall 85-86 and helped cut and stack so just after my time. Moses Hall was the RAB's at that time.
I was good friends with Keith Ebanks '89 and a Moses RAB who was big into bonfire. He was the big brother of Michael Ebanks who died on stack in 99. Tragically, Keith had died in a car accident before his younger brother started A&M. That family lost both sons.

That is right. I forget that we got kicked out of Moses for Spring 89 so they could renovate. It was the first year we were back in the renovated dorm that DG "officially" came out as all female.combat wombat said:txags92 said:

My brother was in DG 84&85 on 4th floor...his roommate was a crew chief in 85 I believe. I would bet you knew one or both of them.tlfw378 said:

I'll bet I remember them. Names have mostly escaped me though...sadly. I don't remember anyone I didn't get along with. Some real Red Asses. I do remember South wing of Second floor were hard core. My older brother was on 2nd.
This Spirit of Aggieland has never been the same since on campus Bonfire fell.
Some of my best memories of my time at A&M were out at stack with my buddies.
Damn I miss it.
Kinda glad it was gone before the internet and SJW's could go after it though.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
The anti-greek sentiment used to be very strong on campus. (It was not quite as strong during my years in school)

It's not over yet, with the SJWs. They destroy and cancel the names of people and things long dead and gone, just to tarnish the memory of them. Shame is the game.
They'll not stop with Sully as the Corp is in their sights as well. If they can rid our University of the current icons, the "past" is next.
Circle the wagons, never conceding an inch. Ever. It's the only way to preserve Tradition.

Moore hall crew chief 90 and class of 93. DG was a girls dorm in 89. I remember coming up a weekend in 88 to check out campus and I thought for sure I'd live in DG. Ha!
I'm not sure what to do with it now. I was sure the Outdoors board would find the rightful owner.
You can send it to me. I'd be happy to hold onto it while continuing to look for it's original owner.
Call the association. Let them write an article about it, see what turns up. They've written all kinds of lost aggie ring stories, this could be a different twist for them. At the least, they can put you in touch with the class agent, maybe they have a class of '90 Facebook group or email list.
Also, has your friend looked at the deed to who owned the property in the past and try to figure out the pot owner that way?

It's possible The Association may want nothing to do with anything Bonfire related.
It's going to be difficult to get the AFS on board with a bonfire story
If you want, I'll start a Facebook post based on what you've posted here. It won't take long for it to get shared.
How long have you owned the home? Could it belong to a previous owner?
Good idea. On former students FB page?trouble said:

It was found in the attic of a rent house. The previous owner also used it as a rent house.Ducks4brkfast said:

The old weirdo Moses guys are sure they know who it belonged to. They are actively tracking him down.

Look, not everyone knows how screwed up Moses is
We did our best to let everybody know when I was there...trouble said:
