For those who sent email to me or mentioned it in conversation, the mystery of the Texas A&M Bookstore with the plywood applied inside (for hurricane preparation) is solved. And so it appears we Aggies aren’t as dumb as we were made to look.
The vindicating story is available on Snopes here. In short, the outside window frames could not support the weight of the plywood. So the decision was made to sacrifice the easily replaceable glass, but save the contents of the store.
So while that mystery is solved, I do not know who kidnapped our football team these past two weeks against Texas State and Baylor respectively. Both were very unimpressive wins.
But, Gig ‘em nonetheless…
