Interesting Fact: Until last year, my husband and I had only missed two Texas A&M football games, home or away, in 21 years. We missed one game because our daughter was in the hospital (A&M vs. Hawaii) and the other game because a hurricane shut down the airport in Virginia (A&M vs. Virginia Tech).
