Texas A&M University students serve as members of the 12th Man and stand ready to support their team at the games, yell practice, and in the ticket pull lines. Texas A&M has a Temporary Tent or Canopy Installation on Campus Rule and to preserve the tradition of ticket pull and for the safety of our students, the following policy will be implemented for the purpose of ticket pull.
