A right of passage at
Texas A & M University, whereby the undergraduate males share a bed with another male on the night before game
day. It signifies the great bond of the "12th man" where males agswag with 12 other males (
1 for each
game of the collegiate season). It is a tradition that started in the early 1950's, a time when A & M was an all-male institution. There was much controversy when they admitted their first
female student in 1974, as students thought females would interfere with their agswag ritual, but the tradition of male bonding lives on and is still popular today.
