Our Story
We are a group of graduate students working toward our Master’s in Business, brought together by a shared passion for leadership and entrepreneurship. As part of our academic journey, we decided to create a company that reflects our connection to Texas A&M and the traditions we love. Inspired by Aggie football, barbecue, and tailgating, we developed a product that brings the energy of game days to fellow fans. Our goal is simple: to celebrate what it means to be an Aggie and share that experience with others.
