Texas A&M fans looking for a historic and unique piece of Kyle Field will have a chance to get their hands on one of the most iconic pieces of college football.
There is an auction that begins at 7 p.m. ET tonight on eBay where the old “12th Man” letters, which are four feet tall and made of aluminum, will be sold individually. The underlined “TH” will be sold together. The starting price for each letter will be $100, the Dallas Morning News reported.
The letters available through the auction hung from the student section from 1988-2018. They were originally maroon and on the second deck base, but were painted white and moved to the base of the third deck after video ribbon boards were added at Kyle Field.
The Texas A&M Class of 1988 is responsible for the auctions, as the class gave the letters as a gift, which totaled nearly $10,000.
The letters are being auctioned by the Texas A&M Class of 1988, which originally gave the letters as a class gift, which was valued at almost $10,000. The letters were returned to class in the summer of 2018 after new letters were installed.
Here is a link to the auction, which will close at 6 p.m. on Sept. 5.
