The “world’s largest bonfire”
symbolizing the burning desire
of the Texas Aggies to beat the:
Texas University Longhorns in
football Thanksgiving Day, is ig
nited each year during the week]
preceding the game.
Last year’s 85-foot structure,! I
built of 30-foot logs stacked end I
on end, was doused with hun-jj
dreds of gallons of fuel to insure,
that it would be roaring hot.
While yell leaders toss torches
to touch off the fire, A&M stu
dents stand at attention and sing
the school song, “The Spirit of J j
Aggieland.”
Loupot’s
Traditionally, Aggies follow |
with yells far into the night.
One of the oldest traditions of 1
Aggies, the bonfire has been an
annual affair since 1909. In ad
dition to the burning desire to
beat t.u., the classic blaze re
flects the undying flame of love
that every loyal Aggie carries in
his heart for the school.
That 1909 stack of 12 feet was!
merely a campfire compared toj
today’s woodpile. In 1960, the
Aggies went all out to set a rec
ord of 101 feet.
Security is tight for the bon
fire area on the south side of the
campus.
