Quick weekend update

A few thoughts from the weekend.

1. Texas A&M is truly one of the greatest places on earth. It had been so long since I had attended a game at Kyle Field that I had forgotten how incredible it is. It is, seriously, the best place in the world to watch a college football game. And I’m only slightly biased.

At halftime, in the middle of the Fightin’ Texas Aggie band performance, Former President George H.W. Bush and Secretary of Defense, Dr. Robert Gates, came out on the field and awarded an Aggie Marine, Class of ’03, a Medal of Honor for his service in Iraq.

Honestly, it was the best part of the night and I don’t think there was a dry eye in the stadium. Incredible moment.

2. On a less serious note, sitting a few rows ahead of us were some students from Kansas. They had on shirts that made us laugh out loud. Gulley and I had to get a picture with them.

The only problem is that we love our 12th Man. The Aggies would have been much better off if he had eaten our coach.
