Big Tex burns down at the Texas State Fair and now A&M campus is evacuated due to a bomb threat?

Yep, LSU must be in town.

@Fayettechill14 That was funny. Didn't Texas have a bomb threat just like this about a month ago before a big game? Seems like there is something in the water (or some nut job just hates Texas schools).
