Gig 'Em Aggies!!!
If this is a prank it is
a) a prank
b) a good one
All of a sudden they’ve got a problem with diversity at the university?....................
oh the horror! the humanity!
Somethong different!
ROFLLL!!!
Good one!
Pardon my ignorance, but is there some sort of rivalry between these two schools?
Cool! As long as they’re not in the shape of the a&m logo, they should send them a thank you card.
I love aggie bonnets-but about 1/2 the ones I planted out here were blooming more pink than maroon...
Like Russia and Ukraine, but not quite as civil.
Now if Texas A&M only had the foresight to get their flowers declared endangered so they could not be legally removed.
don't get my Texas kin started on Aggie jokes...take every polish joke and substitute Aggie.
This is funny. The bluebonnet is the state flower and I have always heard that it is illegal to pick them.
Another part of the story is that whoever planted them, did so all over the campus.
It was a while back, but a Congressman from Texas was on the long journey home from Washington. He stopped to visit his congressional colleague from Tennessee. The Tennessean gave him a tour of Knoxville. They went down near the river to see the creation. The Tennessean proudly exclaimed “ This is our great University, The University of Tennessee”. He went on to extol the great professors and opportunities for the bright students flocking to the campus. He called the chancellor who graciously greeted the congressman from Texas with a Tennessee orange T shirt emblazoned UT.
While traveling, the Texan thought on his visit and concluded that we need a university like that in Texas.
Alas, disaster struck. While philandering in a gambling hall under the hill in Natchez, the Congressman from the great but fledgling State of Texas was murdered. He went immediately to hell. The fires burned heatedly and though not consumed, his hair, eyebows and clothing were scorched. On presentation to the devil, the evil one saw the UT shirt and decided this must be a Holy Man and cast the Texan out. He found himself dazed but alive once more on the road back to Texas.
As soon as he got home, he called a committee to meet and they created a University, The University of Texas. To his day many Texans proudly wear T shirts of Burnt Orange bearing the logo UT.
Once again, like the Alamo and San Jacinto, Texans became indebted to Tennessee for greatness.
Just to remind Texans, all Texans of their educational Heritage
Beevo was unaivable for comment...
...Just a little.
Noooooo.......
Nah. Now Auburn and Alabama, THAT’s a rivalry.
They can’t be removed because it is the state flower!
Best prank!
