Horses seem to be imbalanced, high maintenance animals...no wonder women like them so much.
After the suicidal horse incident in 1994, I also seem to remember that some Ags had t-shirts bearing the image of a horse with some type of slogan. Does anyone remember what those t-shirts said?
Believe me, we're not above the fray, despite what some holier-than-thou's here want to believe.

Folks, these nimrods are going to believe whatever they want to believe. The football team needs to shut them up on Saturday, so we can move on what has become a truly scary annual event.
Funny, I was just about to post the same thing in response to all the aggie myths I read on another post. Oh, but those stories are all true, right?
Well I read it on the internet, on a tech website, so this HAS to be true.
Why worry about someone else killing your mascot when the mascots are rather good at doing it themselves?
In 1963, the horse, Tech Beauty, was kidnapped and spray-painted with the letters "AMC" prior to Tech's footbal game against rival Texas A&M.
In 1975, the horse was kidnapped and received chemical burns after being painted with orange paint prior to Tech's football game against Texas.

i hear a fat cow is comin to c-stat in a few months...anyone wanna bring a saw to the game and see what we can do about its horns?
Does anyone have a link to the video showing Tech's horse running into the wall? I've just never seen it.
An interesting tidbit about the '94 game where the horse killed itself:
Tech was playing the University of New Mexico that afternoon. And who was on the sideline leading the Loboes?
Dennis Franchione.

Vick 'em!
Absolute BS.
Tech's mascot did commit suicide at one of their home games during one of their "down" periods.

I went through the entire thread over at ESPN and I see exactly one guy that accuses A&M of burning a horse. One poster refines it to relate to the 'painting' incident.
Talk about black helicopters.
