The Fightin' Texas Aggie Bonfire dates back to 1907 and took place before the football game against the University of Texas. In November of 1999 The Bonfire collapsed and claimed the lives of 12 Aggies and injured 27 others. This memorial was built to remember those lives lost.

If you ever attended a Texas A&M Bonfire, or want to honor the 12 who died in '99, this is a special place .

The Aggie Bonfire was known for being a ritual that took place every time the football team at College Station played the University of Texas, and the tradition of having a bonfire was first started in 1909. In 1999 however the bonfire was incorrectly constructed and 12 people were killed as a result. In its place a memorial has now been erected that features twelve stone arches, each one of which points towards the hometown of one of the victims. Many visitors to College Station find that this is one of the most moving experiences that they have here, and the memorial is located in an area of parkland that makes it a serene spot to visit. There are also tours of the memorial open to groups if you book advance where volunteers will explain all about the history of the bonfire and the tragic collapse in 1999.
