Traditions and The UT Longhorns


Austin Texas is a great place to be especially when its time for kickoff. At thanksgiving The University of Texas has a match up with Texas A&M, some might call it a football game. When your from Austin its more of a yearly showdown. More than a game, its a 119 year tradition that has been a very important part of both schools. This year is the last of the great show-downs.

The University of Texas has a tradition of lighting the tower when any of the sporting team wins. After the victory over the Aggies of A&M they lit the tower. It is must see, and experience.

It was great to be home to watch the showdown, it was awesome to drive into town to get a picture of the tower after this game. But is was extremely powerful to share it with my family. Even our daughter screamed during the game.
