Updated, more restrictive ticket pull rules have Texas A&M football fans incensed

School officials banning students from camping out for more than one week for Texas A&M football tickets

It has become somewhat common to pass by Kyle Field in the fall months and see a bevy of tents surrounding the ticket office, filled with students awaiting their chance to see Texas A&M football play their next home game. As the excitement rises for the big time matchups on the Aggies' schedule, you begin to see people out there earlier and earlier.

In fact, a recent story from the Bryan-College Station Eagle detailed how there are already students camped out for their opportunity to see the Mike Elko era open against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. The game, of course, is not scheduled to begin for roughly eleven days.

Then, today, a bombshell dropped that rocked the Aggie fanbase.

This is unamerican.

I mean, come on. Do they really expect us to see this announcement—that fans can't put up their tents any sooner than one hundred and thirty eight hours before the day the game is supposed to be played—and not get upset? What about all the students who have been getting there one hundred and thirty nine hours before? What are they supposed to do with that extra hour? This is very poorly thought out.

Aggie fans made their outrage known on social media.

In all seriousness, with the rivalry being renewed this fall, I feel confident that there would be people camping out to get their tickets to the Lone Star Showdown starting in mid-October.

Kim asks an important question.

Justin Slaten Truther, however, has a different perspective. The rabbit hole goes further than we could ever imagine.

Okay, in lieu of this idea, I have my own. How about fans can just show up throughout the week and put their name down on a list that shows the order in which they got there. That way no one can—hold on, I'm being informed of something.
