A Video Tribtute To Texas & BON

Good morning, Longhorn fans. Before we get into the day's news, we start our day with a video tribute - a tribute not only to Texas, but to Burnt Orange Nation.

If the editing looks familiar to you, it should. Chum, the delightfully creative and crazy (in a good way) Kansas State fan answered my call for a video, and did so masterfully. I literally couldn't love this any more.

Thank you, sir. And enjoy, BONers.

Haunting, profound
Wow. Chum drops ShortHorn gold with this one. I liked the change of pace - more laid back and introspective. Damn that was beautiful.
Sic 'Em? Why the hell not?

I am so glad that people do drugs

I really wasn't expecting it to be that good.  Just awesome.

I would love to know what band or bands were in that.

Greatest Texas video ever?

At least dang close.

I have a commitment to the truth.

Hahah

I'm at the office, so I'm radio silent. Even without sound, though, that rocked.

The image

of PB glaring at the basketball team will remain with me for years to come. That and Simms and Applewhite switching heads. All of it will make for great dream material.

Kudos to Chum!

So take that.

Oh my sweet Lord.

This is absolute genius.

All the little details- like the woman's tapping foot or the multiplying USC cheerleaders, or the random picture of drunk Leinart.

AMAZING.

My favorite parts

in no particular order. Paul Gleason giving the hook'em horns, The Merril Hodge stuff, the poms/chaps/smiley face, PB with the angry eyes, The 1987 poster with all the football player wearing the long coats (I actually have a copy here somewhere) and the music.
