As an Aggie fan, I am in complete agreement with you here
That being said, UT is still and will always make up a major cultural part of Austin. I can't deny that a majority of Austin is in love with the Longhorns. In the case of the Fairmont and their ability to use their lighting abilities as a huge billboard, I think, and admire their wanting to fit in with the Austin culture. Hopefully they will use that platform to support the Austin FC. You have to admit, they get everyone's attention. Maybe someday when Texas legalizes weed, they will put a huge lighted leaf on the side of the building.
