Aggie Dr. Al Moore vs Longhorn Bruce Ward
Each year, Rotarians of the Rotary Club of Humble Intercontinental, voluntarily rasise funds for three charities by picking the winner of the traditional Thanksgiving football battle between the Longhorns and Aggies. The charities are, The Rotary Foundation, Jack Fields Scholarship Foundation and the Al Moore Liberal Arts Foundation. A lot of fun is had as the winners are served a meal by those that picked the losing team. The meal is the same for all, but the losers have to eat a little crow.
Bruce Ward, an avid Longhorn, and Dr. Al Moore, a Veterinary graduate of A&M, initiated this fun and rewarding event some ten years ago. The Al Moore Foundation matches donations dollar for dollar up to $1500. These funds are presented to the Humble ISD for use to enhance Liberal Arts Education. Donatins to the Jack Fields Foundation provide for sholarships. Funds are also provided to the Rotary Foundation. There are no losers, only winners in thiis event. Just a good time to celebrate a Traditional football rivalry and raise some money for good causes.
