The honor system, Aggie style. I don't know if this is the funniest story since the porn star ran for governor of California, or the saddest thing since Marion Barry was re-elected as mayor of D.C. But the "list eater" is going to become as engrained in aggie heritage as the 12th man.

A female student cut in the front of the line at ticket window 8 and literally ate the roll-call list.

Get it? Window ate? Boy, you just can't make this stuff up.

Witnesses said she said the list wasn't university sanctioned and she was "right with god." Immediately, the crowd got upset and started yelling and throwing things.

Of course, god was going to be involved. I wonder why god wanted her, specifically, to get tickets to the cotton bowl, as opposed to the poor saps that had been camping out there for four days? The lord works in mysterious ways. . .

"As we kept standing out there people kept yelling beat the hell out of the list-eater. As she's up there talking, people started throwing doughnuts at her," said Micah Gertson who was near the crowd at the time.

Unbelievable. Unbelievable that she wasn't killed. It turns out that she claims she was assaulted by someone in the crowd. She was pushed.

Police say the alleged list-eater filed assault charges against an individual who she says grabbed her wrist and face Thursday at Camp Cotton at Kyle Field.

The woman filed the complaint late Thursday with Texas A&M University Police.

University Police Interim Director Elmer Schneider is considering whether or not to release the woman's name.

That would be hilarious if they released her name, but since there's video of her acting like an idiot, they won't have to. Her name is going to be all over the 'net pretty soon (if it isn't already). Also, she's going to be pretty easy to spot in the stadium at the Cotton bowl. She's going to be the one in the center of all the trash that's going to be hurled at her for all four quarters of the game.

Students had been keeping a roll-call list and witnesses say the girl grabbed the list, and ate it.

But she says she didn't.

The woman in question called KBTX Thursday night and said she did put the list in her mouth but didn't swallow.

So. . . . she put it in her mouth, but she didn't swallow. You just can't make this stuff up.
