So, I get A&M refusing to ever boo our players or the opposing players. That's just class. But seriously, how is hissing any "classier" than booing when it means the exact same thing and used the exact same way? Hissing feels like that nerdy, goody-two-shoes kid in school that refuses to use real cuss words, so he says "shoot, goshdarnit, dang, freak, etc." I've never understood this. Granted, I still agree we should never boo players, but I think bad refs are fair game.

I'm with you. Hissing is pretty dumb. I'm old army and it's always been dumb.

You can't hear it and if you did, you wouldn't know what it means.

We should boo so loudly that you can't hear him speak. Then, during the rest of the game, every time he turns on his microphone, we should boo so loudly that you can't hear him speak.

Then, in future games with the same ref, we should boo so loudly that you can't hear him speak.

It's like calling a woman a c*** or a b****. Just like hissing, b**** is slightly less offensive but the intent to demean her is still there.

Oh and hissing is f cking stupid. I'll boo at whatever I want.

Booing is classless when its directed toward a player.

Booing is absolutely appropriate toward a terrible ref (and yes, Brewer, sometimes its the ref, not just the officiating).

And I agree. Certain officials should absolutely hate being at Kyle Field.

Boo on any targeting called against us. Cheer on any targeting called on bama. Because targeting is a stupid rule when called against us. But if we are targeted we gotta protect our players and eject bama.

Last week against South Carolina was the loudest I've ever heard booing in Kyle!!! I was elated!!!! That head official needed his front teeth knocked out!!

Hissing is too much like a golf clap. Yes, boo the refs, boo the spirit killer, boo the dj, boo touchdown jesus/mohommad/joseph smith/adam smith/granny smith and boo Young - basically anything that distracts from the actual game should get it.

Sharp, on the other hand, should get "durhhhhhhhhhh'd"!

"What's this button do?"

We are the classiest fans in college football. Hissing is very CT dork-ish and all other schools make fun of it but it does separate us from the vulgar trash fans from tu, tceh, Bama, LSU, Colorado, Miami, and so on.

I will never ever boo any of our players or coaches. I survived the Fran years without a single boo and I will continue this long standing tradition. Hissing is pretty nerdy though. It's true. Just saying.

Happy to see the comments here. Hissing is dumb. How the hell is hissing at someone like a snake classy? The "horse laugh" yell almost died out (and was re-emphasized a couple years ago unfortunately) for good reason.

Don't boo Aggies. Boo officials who decide Kellen Mond stepped out of bounds.

Agree completely on booing targeting calls against us, I booed, loudly, when Ha Ha Clinton Dix and Eric Reed unloaded on our wide receivers (Ryan Swope, etc).
