Damn city boy. Longhorns have especially... long horns. And they be mildly dangerous. If one gets hacked for whatever reason, and decides to wheel his head around, you can get snagged on a horn. Hooked, and then thrown. As most Longhorns today are pretty mild mannered thru breeding , this does not happen often. But if you have ever seen those rodeos, you will understand why a lot of the bulls (not longhorns, the ill-tempered breeds) have their horns cut. They can gore you, or catch you and clip you if the horns are long. Hooked.

And just so we dont characterize one school as being full of bad fans. Some Texas fans are extraordinarily rich spoiled brats. Gotta a lot of daddy's money and sip scotch up in the private boxes.
I say Get down with the masses and live the real game. Sweatin in the heat, losin your voice, huggin people you dont even know on a five yard gain... very late note to self: find seat with females on all sides. Great way to meet gals who share the same interest in sports. Big fat drunk slippery guys that bear hug while pouring sweat laden with beer is not as pleasant on the hugging scale.
