It was somewhere near the year of 2001...I don't remember that at all. What game was that and how long ago? Are those the Saddle Tramps?
Tech beat the aggroids and tore the goalposts down. The famed goalpost incident let a mark (lol, literally) on the proud aggies forever.
After the goalpost was torn down it was marched around the field. They tried to carry it out of the stadium but was blocked, so they started towards the aggie fan section. The aggie fans stayed wayyy to long and refused to leave the stadium. Mike McKinney (Governor Perry's Chief of Staff) was in the crowd defending against the criminals coming toward him said, "it was an out of control, angry mob. I felt like I was defending the Alamo." the funny thing was that the angry mob was lead by none other than the 12 year old GAP kid. McKinney said he was getting attacked so he started swinging his binoculars wildy in self defense, of course. He hit some people with it and then someone punched him in the face. After this he gave several interviews about how he was a man of honor who had to defend the great state of Texas. He called for defunding of the school, lawsuits and jail against the sorry Tech person attacked him. Thankfully he was man enough to withstand the angry mob (lead by 12 year old GAP kid?).
Now here is the funniest part of the story - after an investigation of the ordeal and all of the film being reviewed it turned out that while Texas hero McKinney was wildly swinging his binoculars he hit some Aggies. The person that punched him in the face turned out to be an aggie visitor himself.
Long live the GAP kid!
