Other than "Rammer Jammer", does anything sound more ignorant than "Gig 'em"?

Your claim was it sounded ignorant which is ironic considering your lack of knowledge (by choice) about what it represents.

Damn, just damn.

 

Correct, someone being illiterate or not knowing the proper pronunciation of words might use a completely wrong consonant sound.

 

Still sounds ridiculous, and now I've wasted 30 seconds to read about it...
Rather than end a conversation with "goodbye", many conversations between Aggies end with "gig 'em", usually accompanied by a thumbs up. This tradition began at a 1930 Midnight Yell Practice held before the football game against the Texas Christian University Horned Frogs. In an attempt to excite the crowd, Pinky Downs, a 1906 Texas A&M graduate and member of the school's Board of Regents, asked "What are we going to do to those Horned Frogs?"[13] Using a term for frog hunting, he answered his own question, "Gig 'em, Aggies!"[13] For emphasis, he made a fist with the thumb extended. The phrase and hand signal proved popular, and it became the first hand sign of the Southwest Conference.[13] Gig 'em is also the name of one of the school yells, which is used during football kickoffs.[14]

The university's traditions council recognizes another possible origin for the expression. The word "gig" is used in the US Army to indicate an infraction of the uniform code, and the A&M cadets used the same vocabulary. New cadets would quickly learn to fear being "gigged" during inspection for having unshined shoes, unpolished brass, or a non-aligned "gig line".[15]

 

Does the Aggie Band play gigs?

 

I hate the Aggies, and this story does nothing to endear them to me more.

Living in Texas, there is no more vile group of alumni--no former students, as one does not need to have graduated from said institution to join its Association of Former Students, for all of the folks who drank too much at Yell Practice, never attended class, and flunked out.

The good thing is that they have sucked enough this year to finally shut them up. Oh, and it helped that Johnny Football (gag) never beat LSU, either.

 

You mean Jonny clipboard?

 

Its hard to believe there are fans worth hating even more than Longhorns fans if you live in Texas.

 

Try living in gumpville. At least the faggies suck this year.

 

No history with tx but long running rivalry with the faggies.

 

I'm not sure the average (University of) Texas student cares about football.
