I went up to A&M yesterday to go to the Aggie basketball game vs Washington. They were honoring Tobi before the game, so I took up some of his Bellaire classmates to see the ceremony.
Went to dinner with Kyle after the game and asked how bonfire went (was in the middle of the ocean during the game, and never thought to ask before). Anyway, much to my surprise/dismay - he told me that due to the burn ban, Bonfire did not get burned this year.
It is still sitting there, waiting for it to rain. There are some poor fish guarding it. The number of man hours that went into building it, and no bonfire. Very sad.
