During Homecoming week, Baylor celebrates with a huge bonfire, much like the bonfire at Texas A&M that they no longer have because it killed a bunch of people.
It almost seems a little wrong to have it at Baylor, being that it is so close to A&M, but such is life at a private institution. I love fires, so we ventured out, and it was huge! 
It had so much gasoline on it though, that it really didn't have the good smell of a bonfire, but it kept the blaze going. You could go really close to it, and they didn't have anyone making sure people didn't like...fall in. :-) There weren't very many students there, mainly just alumni and their kids, so there were a bunch of little kids running around, which was fun. Tubas...I think you have a challenge with grain this year! BIG FIRE! :-D
I thought it was warm in texas and here you are at a blazing bonfire in sweatshirts.... you're going to freeze when you come back to VA in a few weeks :)
