Stadiums have been used to honor soldiers and our fallen for years and years. Many colleges have "Memorial" in their name for a reason, Soldier Field in Chicago was named as such as a memorial to our WWI fallen in 1924. To say a stadium can't be a war memorial is ignorant of history and the history of your own program and stadium.
http://www.collegegridirons.com/big12/MemorialStadiumOklahoma.htm
OU's own stadium was originally named as a memorial to Sooner alum who had dies during "the Great War."
You may not like our rules and such, but it is not your place to determine how we govern our stadium, just like it isn't our place to determine the rules at OU.

Nope, talking about staying off the Field after the game ... not walking on the grass by the MSC ... that kinda stuff.

Your "cadets" have been known to take the enforcement into their own hands. It would be one thing to have cops make people to stay out of designated places but when college punks playing army and brandishing swords try to do the same thing, I've got a real problem with that.
That's fine and dandy .. and if the Corps gets out of line then it's an issue for the police and University. It is not an issue for you to take up personally or the faithful of another school. To take things into your own hands because you don't like what they do is hypocritical because you're doing exactly what you have an issue with. You don't have to like or respect the Corps, the band, A&M, or whatever .... but I think acting in a polite manner is not to much to expect from any fans. We have our own rules about or field and certain other things. I don't expect anyone to praise them, but I would expect people to follow them.

Huh? I didn't say anything about retaliating. I said I have a problem with the aTm armymen pulling swords on people. Having said that, I would defend myself if I needed to - anybody would. Perhaps you're reading too much into my avatar. :)
The number of times that has happened can be counted on one hand. It's not like an O.D. is gonna pull a sward on you as you walk across campus to the stadium. The few times it has happened was because idiots were not following the clear rules and thought themselves to be above the rules or the Corps guy was provoked by the action of the other person and they over reacted. The Corps actions were stupid when it did happen and not right ... but the actions were pretty much instigated by another. It's pretty common that the Corps or Aggies aren't seeking to start a fight (sips and Tech issues aside) but it is also fairly common for an Aggie to over react to a perceived slight.

Ok, I wasn't here a couple of years ago - what in the hell happend? Am I reading this correctly - that people aren't allowed to walk on the grass around campus, or on their football field. I know that they have some sort of doggie graveyard that you're not supposed to walk on but where else aren't you allowed to walk? Seems like they enjoy making rules for the hellofit.

Thank you for your defense of your husband's policies, Mrs. Byrne. I'm sure he appreciates it.
OK2LA -
The grass around the Memorial Student Center (MSC) is off limits, and we ask that people remove their hats inside the MSC.
Outside of that, and not walking on the field right after the game ... that's about it.
There are monuments all around campus but alot of people don't know about them ... but Ags try to remember our past and honor our own. Some ways we do so are very up front ... like the MSC, some not so much, like the 51 American flags around the stadium (for the 51 Ags killed in WWI) to the plaques on the trees around drill field to others. There are monuments to vets and those lost in pretty much every war somewhere on campus. I remember the ceremony for the monument for the 1991 Gulf War back when I was on campus.
You all don't need ot understand it, like it, or anything else except be polite and try to be "respectful," if not for anything about A&M, then at least because alot of it tries to honor AMERICAN soldiers.

1995 Texas

Now, did I ever say anything otherwise? Geez, I actually went to A&M .... tell me something I don't know.
But, I will defend them as they do put alot of men and women into our armed forces who are serving right now. Yeah, they do weird things now and then (but so did us non-regs ... it's part of the fun of being a college student) and they do cross the line sometimes, but as a whole I think they are a good organization.

Thanks for explaining it to me - I didn't know. But really - the grass in front of your student union? Come on. What is sacred about THAT grass? I can understand many of the monuments and such, but the grass in front of the student union?!? I'd say that every university in the nation ENCOURAGES it's students to lay, walk, sit, study, play, etc in the grass - especially the grass in front of the STUDENT UNION. At any rate - it is not my place to understand such rules.
My bigger question since you were so kind as to post the years in which you knew of incidents and listed them - what in the hell happened? Especially the one with the SMU cheerleader?!? Did I read correctly that it is guarded with swords? Did your guys that play army stab somone? I really got to know what in the hell happened - and I wann know what happened EACH year - they didn't learn their lesson the first time someone got assaulted?
Seriously - please let me know.
Thanks!
The MSC is an older building on campus and dates back to the "all Corps" days. It was dedicated as a memorial and as such, the request about the grass.
As for the 5 times that I know about:
Early 1980's SMU: this is the oe with the famous photo of the Corps O.D. (Officer of the Day) with his sword and the SMU male cheerleader. As I have heard from many, this was the deal; SMU scored and their cheeleaders went onto the field to form the letter S M U ... this one OD went over board and confronted them. The SMU cheerleaders confronted back and set the kid up, tripping him over. The OD lost it and pulled his sword on the SMU kids and the rest is history.
1987 LSU; Basically this involved a few members of the Ag band and their tubas and a few drunk LSU guys acting stupid after they beat us at Kyle. The band was forming up to march out and two or three LSU fans ran out onto Kyle to taunt the band as they left ... a few tuba players objected and "stopped" the guys. The LSU guys got a night in jail for their trouble and a head ache from a tuba or two.
1995 Texas; The Horns had beaten us once since 1984 and hadn't won in College Station since 1982. In a hard fought game, Texas won in 1995 16-6 and after the game Texas fans rushed the field in mass. It was an ugly scene as tempers flared on both sides and a Miami-FUI scene appeared between fans of both schools ... okay, it wasn't quite that bad, but close.
2000 Oklahoma; I'm not up on this one, but I'm sure there are many here that can relate this.
2002 Nebraska; The Huskers came back and beat us and a few of their fans rushed the field and a few of the Corps guys "escorted" them off. No swords as far as I know, but it did get physical between some Corps guys and a few Nebraska fans.

What I take from this list is, as long as you don't beat aTm, you should be safe. :D
I wouldn't put that in a physical confrontation category. We had issues more intense with Texas in 1992 when our band and theirs were to perform together at halftime. That was kinda tense ... we had several kids refuse to march.
The whole poop flinging stuff is more just trash between schools ... like when some Ags cut the Horns out of the logo at the 50 yard line at DKR back in 1992, or when Texas tried to drop water from an airplane to put out Bonfire, to all the mascot stealing stuff that went on for years, to hundreds of other things between fans.
What I take from this list is, as long as you don't beat aTm, you should be safe
Nah, we've lost without issues losts of times, we've had alot of practice lately (thanks Fran).
But, you know, maybe you all should just take that bit of advice ... better safe than sorry, right? ;)

I was in the Boy Scouts so I'm qualified to make this argument.
They have changed their position the last few years on allowing we "unclean" on their precious turf. Last year some of us even planted rose stems after the game at midfield as a photo op. But ten years ago I saw the corp attack some of our students who set foot on the field after we won. Resulted in broken legs and hospital trips. If that had been me I would have owned A&M, as if anyone would actually want it.

WRONG!
I'm a Sooner born, and loyal to the deepest core of my being, but you, sirrah, are wrong.
Given the number of Aggies, athletes and otherwise alike, who have given their lives in defense of this county and our cherished way of life, it IS fitting that Kyle Field be considered a memorial to their ultimate sacrifice.
I suggest you opine on matters more suited to your demonstrated level of maturity and patriotism. With that in mind, would you vote for Count Chocula in a lower-echelon election, or would you endorse PeeWee Herman?

I know a fair share of racists at A&M...but Nazi's is quite extreme. 5 things..
1) I support the troops
2) I KNOW the government mislead th American public
3) I KNOW we planned to go into Iraq BEFORE 9-11 (because I helped with it in 2001)
4) John Kerry is an idiot
5) Disagreeing with the President does NOT make you un-American, or unpatriotic, and the sheeplike people that think that way ARE Nazi's.

BUT, the Nazi stuff is over the line.
We had alot of kids that have given their life for this nation ... including many that fought the Third Reich in Europe. And, we have alum over their now (yes, all schools do), and calling these kids, as goofy as they sometimes can be, something so vile as Nazi, is flat wrong, IMHO.
As for racist, dude, don't go there. Yeah, they're at A&M ... but they're all over. I live in Austin ... they're here. I am from Oklahoma and my family goes back to the land rush ... I know there is racism in Oklahoma ... and there are racists at OU and oSu ... and Tulsa ... and pretty much every school. There is no need to go there, either.

Never had the honor, but 3/66 is a battle tested battalion. My most cherished memories are of time spent as a company CO and on staff with 1/70 Armor "Strike Swiftly", Ist Bde, 24th Mech, Fort Riley.
There are, of course, memories of a place far away, but let's pass over that.

1-70 is a great unit also.
I saw that Lancer 6 and it reminded me of my days in 1st Brigade, 4th ID..home of the Redlegs (4-42FA), Regulars (1-22INF, John Henry (299th ENG) and of course the Lancers of 3-66 and 1-66 Armor)

I have a Swiss Army pocket knife, a canteen and a pair of aviator glasses. I once went to an air show too. I will walk across the middle of Kyle Field this weekenand no one will mess with me.
Seriously, there needs to be a SF.com mid-field post-game photo. PM me if you are honestly coming down here. I'll be happy to snap the pic.
