Ping for Students doing what should be done.

Make sure nobody gets fried this time. Also make it as big and as impressive as possible seeing as it will be the only highlight for A&M against Texas.

Glad to see the tradition continue. ESPN had a bunch of hand-wringers on this morning's pregame talking about goalpost 'incidents' - which are statistically similar to airline crashes - that is to say, 0.0000001% of the time. Still, they have their 'serious story' and an agenda.

I just heard it may not be allowed to happen due to drought conditions in the area and by order of local gov't.

Student bonfire? That's hardcore. I assumed you guys used wood like everybody else. How do you work that, send some of the fellas over to Austin in a U-Haul truck, armed with blackjacks?

I've always admired the Aggies' bonfire. I love the tradition. Several of my cousins attended Texas A&M. And there were several of us who attended The University down the road in Austin. Good game and good luck on Friday (but not too good!)

BEAT THE HELL OUTTA tu!

p.s. I've worked on Stack... Dr. Gates and company need to get their act together, settle the suits, and have Bonfire (in some form) back on campus... preferably returning it to Duncan Field - where cricket... CRICKET... matches are played now.

In memory of 12 who died.

Who died because the (redpot) student (leaders a few years ago) followed "good bull" and and "good practice."

There are reasons behind the rules they broke, and the material and practices they failed to follow. Failing to follow those reasons, while invoking the wrong "traditions " for the wrong reasons led to the loss of the school's organized bonfire.

They just said on the local news that at least 9 people will be fined $500 for violating the burn ban.
