This has been discussed to death, but it's a pet peeve of mine. The Texas A&M campus is not "in" College Station. It is in an unincorporated part of Brazos County and, since the mid/late 1940s 1938, has been surrounded by College Station.

I DGAS about the marketing part of it, BTW, but I'm pretty sure that Bryan has paid $$$ to be added to the location of A&M sporting events.

If I'm being honest, I think it has a nice ring to it!

I don't think this was a Sharp thing. I think I remember this was the University and the ongoing fight between CS and Bryan.

I always thought the "new" mention of Bryan is because the RELLIS campus of Texas A&M University is in entirely in Bryan, which hasn't always been the case. The campus was annexed by Bryan in 2019. Since part of the local campus is in College Station, and part in Bryan, both are listed.

It was part of negotiations for tax support from two cities for expanding Kyle. I'm not sure what the point is in complaining since the expansion is complete and mostly a positive.

If you've got a problem with calling it B-CS, like this classic, then that's on you...

Grapevine International does have a nice ring to it.

So does Irving International.

I don't like HEB (Hurst Euless Bedford) International, but it could work.
Plus, now that the grocery store is up there, it would really be confusing when someone said they were dropping someone off at HEB.

For Texas A&M athletics, it's College Station. All of the main venues Kyle Field, Olsen Field, Reed Arena, and Davis Diamond are located there. "Bryan-College Station" is a regional or marketing label and doesn't change where games are played.

It's College Station because the Post Office called it that prior to incorporation…

This doesn't bother me as much as "Texas A&M Aggies" instead of "Texas Aggies."

This has been my opinion for the past 47 years. Spell "Texas Aggies" in the end zone. Gear etc … I will never buy, and I will never wear any piece of clothing or swag that says Texas A&M Aggies.

Write that on a damn t-shirt.

Or baseball jersey. Or the end zones of Kyle Field.

The outfield wall used to say Texas in left center and Aggies in right center. I found a picture that shows the Texas part.

Nice. Rec center getting built. Pedestrian bridge in the background. Kyle Field with no endzone stands. Old Army.

Also notice there's no hitter's backdrop in center. You had to clear the center field monster to get a HR.

John Curl did it twice in the same week in 1995.

This is false. The main campus is located in College Station city limits, including Blue Bell Park.

Also false. The RELLIS campus is not part of Texas A&M University. It's a TAMU System campus.

From looking at an old annual, then called the Longhorn, students (cadets) used to take a train to Bryan. Probably nothing in College Station existed. Those sneaking back after hours would jump off the train early to avoid bring caught by Trigon bulls. The annual I looked at used a fair amount of space laughing at one student who landed in a mud puddle after he jumped from the train

I think it is more a city argument than anything else. There was a resolution a few years back from the Board of Regents where Texas A&M declared both Bryan and College Station to be home to the university. College Station put on their water tower "Heart of Aggieland" when they repainted it, and then after that Bryan put "Birthplace of Aggieland" on their water tower. They both have "Welcome to Aggieland" city limit signs.
