Waaah the zoo is being mean! The people in those pics and those who approved deserve the wrath of 10000 zoos. After 2006 OU wrath of 1000 zoos.

Fish Camp getting all this hate. Talking bad about other aggies is almost as bad if not worse than taking funny pictures at bonfire memorial


What make her think they're Aggies? They're just students at Texas A&M.

Dumb kids do dumb things. This is a dumb thing.

I'm sure these are good kids. I know it. I was a Fish Camp counselor once (maybe twice), we did stupid things. But I don't think we'd ever dream of doing anything this disrespectful in the MSC, which is a similar memorial to Aggies who died a long time before I was born.

Those gates represent a person. A child. Somebody's baby sent off to college who never came back. I do not understand how those synapses didn't fire when acting like the Jolly Green Idiot in these pictures.

If any action can revoke your being an Aggie, I think we just found it.

I support calling the office if you want but please note the people answering the phone likely had nothing to do with this and likely disapprove like you do.

Express your sentiment but please do so politely.

Just told my daughter to do the same thing. She will likely be going by in person. Your anger and disproval will have a stronger voice if you stay calm.

Some people on TexAgs are uninformed and should keep their mouth shut about things they obviously know nothing about.

they're bashing on fish camp. Saying we are all,"neon-wearing butthumpers." And other educated things like that.


I rather enjoyed this one. This tool bag is probably posting in here defending these counselors.

Disgusting, I don't mean to reiterate what other Aggies have already stated, but these kids should at least be removed from Fish Camp, and have to write letter of apology to each and every family who lost a loved in the collapse.

Highly inappropriate, I did dumb things in college, but nothing to this magnitude. Would you pose provocatively at the 9/11 memorial in NYC? of course not. As a college student, most learn that actions have consequences, it is time for them to learn this lesson.

Furthermore their purpose is to develop and enrich the love of the University and it's traditions and history to incoming freshman, obviously they've failed to show the sanctity of the Bonfire Memorial for future freshman with this ridiculous photo.

The picture with the girl in the red shoes and her bottom part poking out of her jorts is standing in the gate for Bryan McClain, class of 2002. He was a Freshmen in Sq 2 on November 18, 1999.

She should not be there. Neither should that dude. Not like that.



Bryan's roommate at the time was the son of a family friend of ours. I hadn't heard that name in awhile. Brings back some very sad days.

These kids should be punished. They should start out their careers in Aggieland already on some form of probation. They should have to apologize or face expulsion.

However, kids make stupid mistakes, even very bright kids. One might even suggest that the sheer excitement and jubilation of starting their life at A&M clouded their better judgment. If they can see the error of their ways, apologize, keep their noses clean and remain with the good academic graces of the university, then let them be forgiven.

As for whoever was in charge that let this happen, I don't even know where to start.

I just don't understand the ignorance. It's your duty as fish camp counselors to know, understand, and spread the Aggie traditions. No tradition hits home harder than the Bonfire Memorial. I don't care what year the participants were, even upcoming sophomores. You were on campus for a full year and that's plenty of time to know by now the significance of that structure and what it means to A&M and Aggies everywhere.

I think a permanent removal is unlikely with fish camp coming up soon, but it's an appropriate punishment. What a disgrace. "I didn't know" is not a valid excuse due to what the organization is and what is supposedly stands for.

UrbanAg--these are fish camp counselor pictures. All of them have been here at least a year, and others have said the guy in the Corps cut is a senior.
These are not the fish that fish camp is supposed to be centered around, but their so-called teachers and mentors getting together before Fish Camp itself kicks off.

This. These kids don't need to be vilified, they made a terrible mistake. We all made decisions we regretted while at A&M.

Or was that just me?

I know the girl in the first picture, she's an upcoming senior, this IS from a Fish Camp, if I'm not mistaken Camp Murray, and there are no excuses for this...period

Yeah I know one person is a senior member of the Corps of Cadets. Another is a member of one of the top sororities at Texas A&M if no one had noticed that yet.

I would like to see each member of the camp issue a written apology to the families of those who lost their lives and are remembered by the Bonfire Memorial.

Ok. The twitter responses are not helping the whole "this isn't all of fish camp" thing. At all.

Their individual organizations (corps and whatever sorority) should and probably will take action as well.

My favorite has since been deleted like a Manziel tweet however it was an exchange with a new army kiddo talking about all the "educated opinions" on Tex Ags and him being offended at being called out for a neon sporting, croc wearing, croakie buying FLO-tard.

Alright, I may have embellished that a "little".
