Breaking: worst air disaster in Aggies history
NEWS FLASH! - Abilene, Texas-----West Texas' worst air disaster occurred when a small two-seater Cessna 150 plane, piloted by two Texas A&M University students, crashed into a cemetery earlier today in College Station. Texas search and rescue workers have recovered 300 bodies so far and expect the number to climb as digging continues into the evening. The pilot and co-pilot survived and are helping in the recovery efforts.

3. Old joke.

Heard it long ago, though in a different cemetery.

I think a worse disaster will happen to the Aggies next Saturday. They are playing University of Oklahoma, aren't they?

On edit: (for a sick friend)

14. Let it be said that I will not be watching the game.
I'd just get depressed watching my once-national-power team getting pummelled. So, I'll catch the score later, curse and move on.

Get your licks in now though - we'll be back.

25. I like when teams like Northwestern succeed
It's fun to see the excitement of the fans and alumni.

Oh well, I'm off to bed to dream of another upset of biblical proportions. :nopity:

5. Been years since I heard a good Aggie joke
Back when I worked in Texas, in the early eighties, I noticed the Port-A-Can was always labeled "Aggie Disco".

6. Hmmmm
Aggie jokes aren't as big of a thing anymore in Austin. OU Sooner jokes are more popular now, but I won't do it. Oklahoma took good care of our Texas Democrats when they departed for Ardmore.

11. I think someone is confused...
about the geography of Texas. College Station is in East Texas and it ain't nowhere near Abilene. :shrug:

27. Gotta admit
I didn't write it. My knowledge of Texas stops at the Dallas city limits, excepting a little town called Silsbee near the Big Thicket. I just thought the joke was hilarious. And my dad hated the Aggies with a passion, so it's genetic.

19. Lol...
I thought it was serious for a second. Like I thought they (2 people) really went down in a rather small but populated graveyard. Then after seeing it mentioned as a joke I reread and I missed the word "digging." lol
