Obviously the outcome was awful. But something else happened tonight that I didn't count on…

My 18 year old, Class of '29, got to see tu fans for what they really are tonight: obnoxious, rude, uneducated, and generally terrible humans. The walk back to our car was riddled with horrible interactions and the types of behavior that would embarrass me to my core should they be exhibited by folks from A&M.

I was reminded how good of a fan base we are in terms of how we treat visitors, and that I shouldn't expect the same from other schools.

So yes, tonight sucked. I hate to lose, especially when it feels like we had what it took to win. But no matter the outcome, I'm proud that I'm a Texas Aggie. After tonight, so is my son. And that will always be better than the final score.

Class of 92 here and went to every home and away game against these ******s from 1988-2011and you are correct, they are the bottom of the gut bucket when it comes to class.

I have to disagree

They were much more civil and accommodating than previous years. I wasn't harassed at all. My daughter got booed by an older man , his wife punched him. Numerous fans were helpful pregame about getting us to our seats and directing us to chair rental. Post game not any heckling in our one mile hike back to the car.


Now the stadium is a. POS. It's crowded and congested getting in and out with a Stairmaster workout to get to our seats but the fans were respectful. Can't say the same for the 2 drunk A&M kids tossed out by the police in 107 for being profane agitators. We live in glass houses

Next time turn your hearing aids up. Because I can guarantee you what you just said is not true. There's no way that you didn't hear one little curse word come out out of anyone's mouth from Texas.

Nice cope. Every school has its bad apples, including A&M.

If the A&M fans, coaches and players didn't run their mouths leading up to this game, the interactions may have been different. If the Aggies actually played well, your perceptions might have been different. Coming on here talking about a bunch of t shirt fans and class and all that is just coping to make you feel better about your tribe.

I don't disagree. But still love the smack talk even when you gotta eat it

I was treated worse at Mizzou this year. Sure they were celebrating but no one I swear not one fan in my face, singing poor Aggies, flipping me off etc. Your experience might have been different, this was mine

We had a group of 8 at the game. Me, the wife, our Aggie kids and their Ag friends.

My kids also got to see it. In front of us was a Texas State dad, his kid, and two of the kids' friends all dressed in tu burnt orange. Those kids appeared to be high school or college age freshmen at most. The dad was constantly pumping those underage boys full of beer throughout the game. Tons of F-bombs, turning around and yelling at our group seeking validation from the Ags any time tu made a good play.

Then 60 year old t-sip war protestor types behind us trying to talk sh in the second half. Of course they didn't say a word when Ags were up.

My kids already had a pretty good idea from watching the environment that their former classmates entered into when they went to tu, but it was good for my kids to see the broader fanbase for what they are.

In the last 5 years I have been to Baton Rouge, Oxford, Starkville, and Auburn. Never had a bad fan experience even close to the interactions with those D bags at last years game at Kyle. I refuse to go to Austin. If the state of Texas had to get an enema, the tube would be inserted at Austin.

I was at the game

There was a group of 5 behind us, they all carried in handles of whisky, even the kids.
My 6 year old Honor student asked what that smell was, and I couldn't believe it, these guys were smoking weed at the game.
I told my sweet son to just ignore it but when they started snorting lines of cocaine I could not keep quiet.
I went and got a cop fully expecting them to be arrested but the when the cop radioed " Its snowing in section 132 row 28" I thought he was calling for backup, next thing I know there are like 11 security guards joining them. It was crazy

Walking to our car someone had flattened all our tires and smashed our back window also.
My wife asked a random horn fan who obviously never went to school there for help but he stole her purse and smashed our front window. Stupid SOB

Ill never goto a game in that hellhole ever again.

Aggies - the "aw shucks" likeable losers for 85 years.

And are we really all that likeable?

Really tired of losing in humiliating fashion and then using the "well at least we're Aggies" mantra in an attempt to make ourselves feel better.

Mizzou fans are classless, and nobody cares about them. And they don't even have a tradition of ever winning anything of significance. And now we are stuck with them as one of our permanent "rivals."

The 'sips are the complete opposite end of the spectrum. Still many a-holes though. But many of them are t-shirt fans, and I've got a number of 'sip friends that mostly always keep it classy.

Fans on my left and my right were extremely kind and welcoming. Almost everyone was being cool, save for one drunk college aged Aggie who was being a ****** and one older t.u. fan who turned around and said stfu to an Aggie who was yelling on defense. lol

The one and last time I went to a t.u. game in austin was a total challenge as well. We lost then as well and my wife and I were taunted and harassed during most of the game. It was the year that the Ags had gotten into dkr during the night and sawed the horns off the horn on the field. The whorn fans around us acted like we were the ones that did it and constantly reminded us about it with f bombs. All during the game we were taunted and harassed. We left in the fourth quarter because it was so bad and on the way to our Aggie bus we were pelted
with ice and more cursing. We swore then that we would never return to a game in austin again and we haven't
done so.

No it'll be in Beaumont/Port Arthur but close enough

There's always bad apples. The last road game I went to with my then GF was just typical. A dude behind me ran his mouth the entire game at me while the couple in front of us were just fantastic to the point the girls asked if we wanted to sit together eventhough we were wearing different colors.

Texas has really trashy fans. Just bottom of the barrel trash. Go figure.

So the handicapped old man wasn't taunted. I am surprised.
