Aggies Enjoy Last Peaceful Saturday Before Military Bombardment Season

Relishing in the last weekend of relative peacefulness, Texas A&M University students took a nice walk around campus without being disturbed by cannon fire, fighter jets, or cavalry.

“I get that we have to remember our school’s history or whatever, but I really like waking up when my body wants and not whenever the fly-over happens,” said junior chemistry major Dan Woodfield. “I honestly enjoyed attending football games in high school, but I don’t love feeling like the campus is being shelled every time we score any points.”

Armed forces-related disruptions are not only felt on game day. On-campus students report being plagued each year by the late-night infantry invasion of Kyle Field.

“Walking back from the rec at night with headphones in is how I unwind,” said sophomore marketing major Alex Ortega. “Unfortunately, it’s really hard to hear my music when I cross paths with the band marching going to Midnight Yell.”

At press time, a representative from the Bush Combat Development Compex at the RELLIS campus confirmed that football season was the most important time to test new military tactics.
