It's not just a color, it's a way of life, Longhorn Burnt Orange

It's not just what you wear in Austin, it's everything. From socks to pjs, from ties to watches, from BBQ's to wine glasses, it's all about the Longhorn Burnt Orange. And everything is better with it. I love burnt orange, as well all know only too well. I mean let's be honest, how amazing would it be for me if I could bath myself, my home, my animals, my car, my computer and my cell? I could live out loud with my love of orange. In Austin it's not just a color, it's a way of life. What's the point of getting dressed your shirt doesn't have a longhorn stamp? Why would you buy a watch without the bull when you could buy one with it? It's like a sickness over here. The love of the horns, the pride in a school. And the bull is for everyone, you're never to young to have longhorns. Cooper, the UT Mascot is kid friendly so even the next generation UT'ers can be covered in longhorns.
It's hard not to get swept up in the whole UT pride. We went out to the dueling piano bar and I counted at least 5 people that had the longhorns on their shirts and not just a t-shirt but some guy had on a nice Tommy B style shirt and of course there were the horns. Crazyness. Today I wore my burnt orange shorts and I fit right in. I was just showing some Texas pride!
Another great reason to live in Austin. I could come out of the darkness and wrap my arms around the color orange! If anyone was made for spirit, it was me!
Peace.. or rather, longhorns..
