The ULTIMATE GUIDE to being a LONGHORN SUPER FAN!

I have collected every single book published on The University of Texas for the past 30 years. Without question, "100 THINGS" is THE definitive guide to acquiring the TRUE HEART, SOUL, and MIND of a great LONGHORNS FAN. There are descriptions of sacred places in Longhorn Land that literally brought tears to my eyes and made me catch my breath. There are the stories of some of the greatest 'come-from-behind' Victories and the Locker Room speeches that inspired them. There are memories told by the greatest players who ever stepped foot on the Memorial Stadium grid-iron. The antics of some of the 'bad boys' are recounted in all their hilarity! You will find the places to go to take the Little Longhorns that will ensure that their blood forever bleeds BURNT ORANGE, and the passion of being at every home game "EYES TO EYES". As chilling and thrilling a 'read' as any ride at The State Fair of Texas after The 'Horns have whupped those Okies!--with much longer-lasting feelings of PRIDE at what it TRULY means to be called A LONGHORN!
