Description

Join the families of the fallen Aggies to remember the collapse of Bonfire at 2:42 a.m. on November 18, 1999. The collapse killed 12 of our fellow Aggies and injured 27 others. Some of us like to say that Bonfire did burn that year when 90,000 Aggies came together on the sight of the collapse for a candlelight vigil. It was a statement that while Bonfire may never burn again, the undying spirit of Texas A&M, the spirit behind each Bonfire, can never be extinguished.

Note: The Aggie family will also come together to remember the 1999 Bonfire tragedy and the 12 Fallen Aggies at the Bonfire Memorial Remembrance Program at 8:00 pm on November 17 at Reed Area.
