Heck, even *I* make it to 4 or 5 Aggie games per decade!
Well, the wife never cared about spots (she's also an A&M grad). The kids never really bought into it, and it went from a 2 hr 15 minute drive from our house to more like 2.5-2 hr 45 minute drive due to all the developments on the road between here and there (outskirts of Houston, mostly around Fulshear).
Plus, the tickets are just insanely expensive, especially for a family of four. And, if I'm being honest, I just don't really want to be that packed in with a bunch of strangers in the heat for 4 hours anymore, plus I just don't like traveling almost any distance. Annnd....A&M has really sucked over the last 20+ years. It's not like we've missed much. And, I've picked up fishing and hunting ( I used to never fish or hunt), and that is where my free time and money go.
I used to meet up with my old college roommate about once a year to go to a game, usually a "gimmie" game vs McNeese state or somebody similar where we could get good tickets cheap, but we haven't done that for a long time. I might hit him up soon, we're both much older and our kids are practically grown at this point.
Whoa. That's a lot of ands ! To sum it up, I much prefer watching the games on TV, and going fishing.
