Alabama fan shares terrific College Station experience thanks to Aggie faithful
An Alabama parent and fan visited College Station, Texas on Saturday for the game between the Crimson Tide and Texas A&M, and raved about the hospitality, despite the 27-19 Alabama victory.
There was a marriage proposal, a pleasant conversation with someone whose manners that were “impeccable” and even a fist bump to an opposing fan after a Damien Harris touchdown run.
As the Alabama fan left, an Aggie asked if he enjoyed her stay in College Station.
“There is magic here,” Robert Davé wrote. “If you ever have the opportunity to attend a game at Texas A&M, do yourself a favor and come. You will never forget it. Roll Tide, friends.”

Yeah, but we’re just a cult……. Good game Bama, well played and clean game. Y’all come back.
You wouldn’t think that if you were wearing burnt orange.
I have friends that have gone and been cussed out by 8 year old kids and had their tires slit.
I am a fan of neither, but Aggies being hospitable is kind of a strange thing for other school fans in the Big 12 as well. Pretty strange comments, but Alabama is weird, too. Weirdos should stick together.
Nebraska, now, has great fans.
I have only been an Aggie since I got out of the Army in 2014 so I can’t speak on what happened in the Big 12, but I am now season ticket holder. I have seen very few instances of fans from other teams coming in and being treated without the utmost respect. I have however seen story after story like this one.
Letters like this make me even prouder to be an Aggie!
Well, been an Aggie since the early 70’s, and Clemson wears burnt orange. After they played A&M in the 80’s, they were so impressed with the hospitality they started a campaign on their campus to become more friendly to visitors.They actually attribute becoming much better hosts to that game in college station.
Three things; 1) if bad behavior by an 8 year old girl is enough to get you going against an entire game day experience maybe some Big 12 fans don’t wear big boy pants and grown up women’s attire of choice,
2) Nebraska fans are top notch. My absolute favorite in the Big 12, but a couple of fan bases in the SEC come close. Was really sorry to see those folks depart the conference. Wonderful, wonderful hosts and they travelled really well.
3) These kind of, “you guys mistreat those of us in Burnt Orange” hissy memes ignore the BS you guys put on everyone else. Go read any, and I mean any, fansite in the Big 12. You won’t get many folks going, “man we were well treated by the horns.” In fact, most of them I read, even today, say exactly the opposite. Maybe, just maybe, its ….. you. Just sayin’.
After the best fan base in the Big 12 left, we replaced them with 13 incredibly fun road trips.
Good news for the Horns…… you don’t ever have to come back. We both win.
Why are you still posting here? You came and tried to troll numerous times but your team didn’t back up your garbage… Go cry somewhere else. All your posts are nothing but shots at SEC fans.
