I hope that everyone has a great time watching, in-person or on TV, this Saturday. It'll be fun to play a team that we have never matched up with before, and I look forward to seeing the Cardinal fans come to Aggieland. If you have never been to College Station, take time to grab some Texas BBQ and enjoy the amenities. It's not a big town, and it may not even be the best college town in America, but I hope you'll find our fans to be the friendliest, most cordial and welcoming of all you have encountered. Please be safe in your travels, and all the best to you and your team!
Gig 'em!

I am definitely sad I'm not making this trip. Would have been nice to mark another campus off the list.

Hi texasaggie94!
Thanks for the warm welcome, my wife and I are stoked to fly down to College Station to see your beautiful new stadium as well as mingle in your tailgate. From what I hear, we have to see the Corps of Cadets march behind the band before the game (and possibly head to the bonfire memorial). I can only imagine the energy of a new stadium renovation coupled with a lopsided win against a good ASU team will create for Saturday, but I'm sure we won't forget it. Texan BBQ is absolutely on the menu!

I am looking forward to this game every bit as much as the Nebraska game in 2007. Went to the BSU at TCU game years ago and had an awfully good time on that trip even though we lost a close one.
Went to Billy Bob's which outside of the game was an experience I fondly remember!

I'll echo the OP. I hope as many cards fans as possible can make it down to Aggieland and that you have a fantastic football weekend except for the outcome of the game on the field. I would encourage you to wear your Cardinal red not only on Saturday but come on out to Northgate on Friday night before heading to Midnight yell at Kyle Field, it may be quirky but it is one of the most unique traditions in college football. Most Aggies pride ourselves on treating visiting fans with respect and I hope and believe you will have tons of positive experiences to report back after this weekend.
Speaking for myself I am excited about this game- living in California I only make it back for one game a year- me and my buddies picked this one mostly because of schedule and to see the new stadium but we have been looking forward to seeing Ball State for a good 10 months now ever since seeing a little MACtion and rooting you guys on last year. Since we only make it to 1 game a year we like to really dig into obscure facts of in this case the Indiana State Normal School Eastem Division. Everyone knows Letterman but how many can go to the next level with Papa John, Jim Davis, the chick from Three's Company and Bonzi Wells?!
The first fan on Friday night I can find wearing red that can tell me how to do a perfect 3rd down chirp the next rounds on me.
Let me be the 2nd to say- Welcome to Aggieland and for those making the trip I hope that you enjoy your stay

Let me be the 2nd to say- Welcome to Aggieland and for those making the trip I hope that you enjoy your stay I was wondering if you could add a little more "color and back ground" to this Midnight Yell tradition? I never heard of that before but may have to get over to the stadium to see for myself. |

I will be there at 9:30 Thursday morning. Cant wait!! For your entertainment, try Texas A&M's "version" of OTP... TexAgs. Specifically, the free football forum (aka The Zoo). A friendly OTP user steered us here to read the blog and visit the boards. Funny stuff! Look forward to welcoming the Cardinals down in Aggieland for the grand opening of the redeveloped Kyle Field. |
