I thought the thread title said "poop" culture at first glance.

I was watching 'House Hunters' on HGTV with the wife the other day. There was a couple of Aggies, both now employed by the school, house shopping. Showed a ton of Aggie stuff on the show, including the couple pulling up to their tailgates on their Maroon and White Tailgate party bus.

In Brad Thor's book (and presumed series of books), the Athena Project, the leader of the group, Gretchen Casey, is an Aggie. Hopefully, future books will be a lot better.

Lifetime Movie network runs a movie periodicslly called Texas Justice starring Heather Locklear. Cullen Davis, the murder suspect, graduated from A&M.

Also, Monster Quest always mentions A&M when they have to have samples identified or need an expert in some animal science field.

^ true...we get love on so many science shows. I notice it a lot on ocean shows where they're studying ocean floor, etc.

Brek Shea (US Mens Soccer) is from Aggieland I believe. Didn't go to A&M though.


He was at an A&M soccer game last season. Wore a Maroon Militia (New soccer version of the Reed Rowdies) shirt:

Didn't read previous 10 pages, but was watching Prison Break Season 2 Espisode 20. The brothers take a ship down to Panama. The boat was one of the clippers from TAMU Galveston. Has "Texas Aggies" in bright white on the top.

Also, A Few Good Men.

Saw Texas A&M show up on a March Madness bracket on "How I Met Your Mother". Looks like they had us losing in the first round.

Apprentice 1 in 2002 or so had 3 Aggies among the contestants including one who played football for our team.
No, there was only a single contestant from A&M, a guy named Bowie. And he didn't play football for us.

There was also a contestant from Texas A&M on the first season of "The Mole".

And don't forget the guy with the dreadlocks (Jason Castro?) from American Idol who was an Aggie.

In Season 4 of The Apprentice there were two Aggies. One was a former football player, Chris Valletta, another, Clay Lee, had not finished at A&M because he was wanted to focus on Real Estate, iirc.

I remember talking to Brek's mom when he was playing for the U17 team, glad to see that being in Florida has paid off for him

But I'll probably go ahead and buy stars to learn all the juicy details on premium.

I did not read all the other pages, but here are a few: Rick Trevino in one of his videos pointed at his Aggie cap,Back to the Future mentioned us beating TCU, and Friday Night Lights when Smash had a tryout and received a scholarship.

I can't believe no one has posted that the second most famous dog and most famous fictional dog Hank the Cowdog had a vet that was an Aggie. It is referenced in the Case of the Double Bumblebee Sting.

I said "details" on Premium. As is often the case the Zoo gets the general news, but Premium gets you the back story. I enjoy both forums, but am very happy I have stars. Extremely good value for the money.
