Homecoming

This is one high school homecoming pep rally that went too far and should have been terminated by the school administration as soon as it was happening instead of participating in it.

Homecoming season, for the most part, has come to an end for high schools, and girls all across the state were wearing mums to school in celebration of homecoming. Some were as big as Texas, but how pricey were they this year?

I figured a mum was in the $20 to $50 range. Boy was I wrong.

This screams "Texas in a pandemic".

David Nail made an appearance in Tyler Saturday night to celebrate UT Tyler's Homecoming.

The city is proud of its traditions, including triennial homecoming.

Mums at homecoming have been a Texas tradition for years, but are they getting too elaborate? One Texas girl spent $600 on her mum.

How did a single flower blossom into the Texas-sized mammoths that they are now?

One thing I've never understood about Homecoming Mums is how they continue to get bigger and bigger. Some mums cover the entire body of the young lady wearing them.

There’s something special in the air this week at All Saints Episcopal School in Tyler. It's on the faces of students, parents, staff, and alumni. It's written on the school’s official seal. It’s imprinted on the community’s heart: honor, truth, and wisdom.

Today is Tyler Junior College's 90th's Anniversary. Yeah, that's a lot of years and while the celebration began Monday it all comes to a conclusion with the Homecoming Football game tomorrow night at Christus Trinity Mother Frances Rose Stadium.

Homecoming mums are a big deal in Texas.
