The Texas Aggies are notorious for their lack of a sense of humor and their fierce loyalty to A&M. I had a friend who was paired off with an Aggie at a UT-A&M football game--many years ago. A&M lost, and the Aggie spent the rest of the evening moping in the corner at the party following the game. Finally, he threw his cap across the room and said "If there were just some damn reason for it all". My friend made some excuse to avoid having to spend the next day with him. One of my favorite Aggie stories is about the Aggie who won the gold medal in the javelin catch--he had it bronzed.
