Last night was the end of a historic showdown in Texas history. The Lone Star showdown has been played for 118 years, its one of the longest College rivalries in the Nation. Last night was the last game The University of Texas and Texas A&M will play on Thanksgiving and possible ever. It was an intense game 27-25 and the battle wasn’t easy. This game will be missed. At half time th Aggies were winning but the Longhorns came back to win. In Kyle Field at half the horns gave the Aggies a awesome send off as the go to the SEC, the University of Texas band played thanks for the memories and spelled out Thanks A&M, I wasn’t there but seeing the picture on TV made me tear up. If I can find the half time show I’ll post it.
There is such a long history between these two school, and it sucks that they are calling it quites, maybe the big wings will get their heads out of their butts and bring this important game back. Otherwise we’ll only be able to watch reruns or The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, while its a good movie its not the same as watching a great battle.
So long Texas A&M, we hate to see you go, you will be missed and maybe some day this historic battle will be fought again.
