Of course, we all know there are more than 50 Reasons Why Being a Longhorn is AWESOME, but this is a damn good start. So, crank up your speakers and play The Eyes of Texas before you scroll down.

50. Because we live in Austin, Texas

49. Because the 40 Acres is a beautiful campus

48. Because you can study in this library

47. Because spotting this little fellow before a test is good luck

46. Because Chaps > Overalls

45. Because Hook 'em!

44. Because we've got a presidential library

43. And, we've got a Tower!

Poor Aggies. They've always been some sort of special to us. They made fools out of themselves when they decided to go the SEC. So, we thought we'd dig a little deeper into the cult - I mean, "university" - that we love so very much (bless their hearts).

21.) “Mugging Down”

The idea is that “When the football team scores, everyone scores.” Seems a bit on the creeper side.

20.) Sayin' “texas university”

College Station: where learning disabilities are witty.

19.) Indoctrination Camp (Fish Camp or T-Camp)

Nah, fuck a weekend-long orientation. Let’s do four days in an even more remote shithole than College Station and learn fight songs.

18.)The Aggie War Hymn

Have you ever noticed that A&M’s entire fight song is all about UT? It’s almost flattering. Collegiate penis envy at its finest.

17.) The glorified ROTC.

Totally the opposite of the Keep Austin Weird Army.
