Not to mention the “Funeral Bowl” (after the Bonfire tragedy) where the LHB played a beautiful rendition of “Amazing Grace” at halftime to honor the dead victims, only to be followed by the tiny dick aggy corps band doing their usual worn out saw ‘em off schtick.

bro do you even turd-ishion?

A&M is too rigid in their defensive philosophy, you could tell in the pre-game interviews Sark knew he could break their “rules”. Also Elkos 4-2-5 is just not sound against outside zone concepts, it doesn’t matter where he lines up his backers. PK is now 9-0 vs Klein. A&M will have a hard time winning this game if things remain status quo.

They don't like our brown people.    

Did they turn those guys in to ICE when they finished playing?

So I watched the replay of the game on sky view. Are the music between plays and the play by play announcer as annoying in person as they seem on that replay?

 

I haven’t been to a game in a while.

I find the announcers annoying. Don’t care much about the music. Wish we could hear more LHB, but the environment was exciting.

Yes. Last game I went to was in 2022 - my first in over a decade. Gave up trying to talk to my friends as the house music starts blasting as soon as the play is blown dead and continues until a few seconds prior to the next snap. Difficult to hear the band over the noise. 

Overall, not a fun experience.

Yes.  We need to ditch the music.   Let the fricken band fill in the time between plays for crying outload.    

And a new PA guy would be an improvement.  It's football, not the WWE or basketball.

I was there for the first launch. 

I don't think anyone in stadium was impressed?  Not even the young ones.   Mine certainly were not. 

The cheep jumpsuit this guy was wearing is symbolic of the Patterson  and Strong era at UT.  

Thanks for the memories

The stadium environment is 100% an entertainment product.

Well it is no Paul Newman, but a true Longhorn fan would be rocking the Milgauss green glass stainless with the orange atomic sweeper.

Has everyone forgotten 2011, the first last game of the series? UT band did a masterful and classy halftime show featuring  "Thanks for the Memories".

Then the aggy band followed with a marching sawed off horns.

I'd forgotten about the Thanks ATM we did. Can't remember if I knew they did the saw em off thing but not surprised. Does anyone have the actual halftime show from that game? I know that atm photo isn't a photo from that game.

I was at the Sam Houston game this year. Not every little thing needs to be applauded or have its on chant or song. Let the band play between downs.

This crap got rolling heavily around 98 with that fucking TacoBell gong starting it all.

I miss the old college football experience. The game, cheer leaders, band and crowd - that’s it.

It’s all about recruiting - loud music relates to young adults for game environment. The same at bball games. If the recruits like it than the olds will have to deal with it. I’m an old sorta btw

I think we should all be entitled to compensation for how loud the TB gong was.

Yes, it sucks. There is a cretin level of endless promotional crap being directed at the poor fans. Bits of popular songs are blasted throughout the timeouts. Plus, as mentioned, there is the dreaded mariachi band, giveaways, fun facts, quizzes and hated Bob Cole. It’s painful and they do the same shit during the basketball games. I’ve been to college games at other major schools and no one else I’ve seen piles on the crap the way UT does.

Except that other blue bloods seem to be able to both recruit at a high level and not turn their stadiums in to Jock Jams Vol 9
