For many years, rivals University of Texas and Texas A&M University played each other in football on Thanksgiving. In 1999, the game fell one week after the collapse of the Aggie Bonfire killed 12 A&M students and injured 27.
The University of Texas band’s half time show that year was a beautiful tribute to the fallen A&M students.
Such a classy move.
Do you know what formation the Longhorn band was in when they played their tribute?
It looks like it’s possibly nothing. My wife says it’s a “swirly do.” However, I still believe it was something specific.
