Groom puts new flavor to A&M-Texas rivalry

Groom puts new flavor to A&M-Texas rivalry

A Texas A&M fan wants to take a bite out of the University of Texas, literally.

Despite the fact that the two bitter enemies, whose rivalry dates back to 1894, no longer play each other on the gridiron, a die-hard Aggie fan is making a statement about his distaste for the Longhorns with one heck of a groom's cake.

Pictures have gone viral of the cake that features the Longhorns mascot, Bevo, that is covered by an A&M blanket and has his horns sawed off, which lay at Bevo's feet.

The sawed off Longhorns reference the line in the Texas A&M War Hymn where fans repeat the line "Saw varsity's horns off" and "Varsity's horns are sawed off."  Varsity is a reference to the Texas mascot.

Here's to hopping that the bride is also a fellow Aggie... because if she's a Longhorn, this groom might start his marriage already sleeping on the couch.
