David and I "invested" in Season Tickets for the Aggies this year because we were excited to see what the Sherman era would bring. Greg, Dana and Doug have had the same seats for years, but we just haven't been up for the commitment until now. We've preferred to sleep in on Saturdays and watch Game Day with cups of coffee in hand, and cheer on the Aggies from our comfy couches. Of course, we've made it down to College Station for plenty of games, but the week-after-week commitment of Season Tickets has just kind of loomed out there in front of us.
So you can imagine our disappointment when our beloved Aggies were outscored last week at home. It was our first time to use our Season Tickets...the stadium atmosphere was incredible...it was a night game(those of you who have suffered through too many 100+ degrees, 90% humidity games on third deck can appreciate this)...but it was not the Aggies' night. We stumbled into our house around 1:30 am last Sunday morning grumbling about the long drive back, the poor "investment" we'd made, how bad the Aggies looked and how much sleep we were going to lose tossing and turning over the loss.
Fast forward one week, and our Aggies look slightly better than before. Hey, at least we put up more points than our opponent. We're still grumbling, but the silver lining is starting to appear, and we're "cautiously optimistic" that the season might not be bad after all.
Isn't it great to be a fan?
Gig'em, Aggies!

I didn't know y'all were getting season tickets! We'll have to tailgate together.
