You think secret service will let him sit in that death trap?  

Do you think Trump is going to spend the cycles to get to college station? The logistics are mind numbing and frankly why the fuck would he. It's not like he needs to sway any fans or locals into his way of thinking. They're already all on the Maga bus.

Stadium empty two minutes after the game is over. Sounds like the bestest fans in the nation. I’m sure they stood the whole game too.




On the on hand, our crowd would thin out too if we were playing an fcs team in mid November. On the other hand, hell will never freeze over with all this climate change.

R/aggies says it is for the band. If they are on during the game I’m sure some GA will be assigned to check them out every now and again and if they are on then there will be issues with the conference.

Also, somebody in the equipment squad needs to pack a hatchet for the game.

Why does a band need banks of speakers? I’m assuming they mean they’ll mic the band and blare their trash out of the speakers.

Two good approaches:

1. Unplug line to speaker cab. Cover plug with super glue. Return plug. Cut line at top of plug.

2. Take a 16-oz. spray bottle of naphtha. Spritz two sprays into each speaker cone, through grille cloth. Strike kitchen match. Ignite.

Profit.

Modern bands and drum corps routinely augment low frequency parts with amplified recordings.  I'm not saying that's all they're doing, but it is a thing.

That seems like a lot of work

I unfortunately watched that and his mind is blown over couches in either the press or “luxury” box?

Yes, during their on-field performances. 

Huh?  What does that have to do with anything?  You asked "Why does a band need banks of speakers?" and I told you why.  I'm not saying this thing isn't nefarious, it is.  But speakers in and of themselves aren't particularly unusual.

For the Aggie honk and blow Mickey Mouse corps?  Yeah, I doubt they've ever used them.

I think the real point is that aggy allegedly has been amplifying crowd noise to make it seem like they give a fuck. The speakers on the sideline thing is new, and seems likely to be against SEC rules.
