The Squeeze

by maverick76904 on Oct 2, 2006 8:18 AM CDT

Does anyone know what the Aggie Tradition "The Squeeze" is? While I was tailgating at Saturdays game, at the very end of the TAMU game, they showed the Corps of Cadets squeezing their genitial, it hopes they would take the pain for the football team. My brother explained this me as I was watching, but I wanted to know it this, hopefully not, is a tradition they do for close games.

freakshow

They were shown on national TV doing it right after their go-ahead field goal vs Tech on saturday.

A&M really creeps me out sometimes.

And by sometimes I mean all the time.

I don't know what this is...

But I'm sure A&M is trying to copyright it.

That is disturbing

This picture should be sent to every recruit who is even thinking about going to A&M.

A&M has a lot of traditions

and 99% of them scare the outside world.

Fortunately, winning isnt one of their traditions.

On the plus side, in a cave somewhere al Qaeda members are saying "those guys are crazy, a little to dedicated to their cause if you ask me"

their heads aren't all they buzz cut...

a&m has to be the most institutionally homo-erotic school ever, while yet maintaining their adamant and inexplicable homophobia. way to go guys. practically having a circle jerk on national TV.

This makes all Texans look stupid

I'm well past the point of viewing this sort of thing as isolated and/or harmless behavior. A&M is breeding generations of Texans who will continue referring to clearly abnormal, cult-like behavior as "tradition" thus dumbing down any meaningful use of the word as well as making the rest of us not-bat-shit-crazy Texans guilty by association.

It's time the rest of the Texas community had a sit down with our Aggie colleagues and let them know that this unchecked stupidity will not stand in our great state. I thought that annual lop sided football games would teach A&M what every child should have learned from their parents: grabbing your balls in public is inappropriate.

What next? Butt sniffing? From the looks on these idiots faces the only thing keeping them from grabbing the next guy and giving him a congratulatory reach around is their other hand.

Get these idiots off the damn field.

Then who would we laugh at?

We need A&M to be this stupid. It provides for days of hilarity. What makes it even better is that they see nothing wrong with any of this.

They proudly support "squeezing", "humping it", painted overalls, losing teams, ugly stadiums, dead collie dogs, fake armies, not having female cheerleaders, poop flingers, list eaters, buzz cuts, yelling practice, bonfires that represent their "burning desire to beat t.u.", cheating Jackie Sherrills... it goes on and on.

We've always known how incredibly asinine they are. It's time the rest of the country get in on the Aggie Joke.

They deserve all of it, and more.

Deadspin has picked this up (and links to Bevo Sports and EDSBS, but not BON?!?! at least EDSBS links to this thread).

I'm making it my personal mission

to spread this photo and video around as much as possible. Hopefully people will then be even more grateful they didn't go to A&M or will decide not to go. We, as humans, need to make a stand to end this craziness.

what

a bad time to be a cadet at TAMU. They will be squeezing a lot more in the coming weeks. They will effectively neuter themselves during the Texas game, which on second though, is not a bad thing for society.
