DolphinDi Posted March 17, 2005 #51 Share Posted March 17, 2005 That big ole longhorn steer you see at the University of Texas at Austin football games is named Bevo! Now that I think of it, I don't really know the story behind the name, but I'm sure there is one. The Aggies beat the Longhorns 13-0 a loooooong time ago. After the game, they stole the Longhorn and branded 13-0 on him. When UT got him back, they fixed the problem by filling in the spaces ie.. making the 13 a B the - an E. When they were done, they had changed 13-0 into BEVO. At least that's what I heard down at UTSA.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrdsb4 Posted March 17, 2005 #52 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Dolphin, You're right. That's the story I heard, too. I had just forgotten it. It's been a few years since I graduated!:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
