Yesterday morning, more than 50 Texas Exes gathered in The American Club to watch the Rose Bowl game with the USC alumni. Two years in a row, we won the Rose Bowl and came back from behind with a margin of more than 1 touch down, and in both years the title was determined by the last Texas play. And of course, this year's Rose Bowl is much more important as it is about the National Championship title. We snapped USC's winning streak and every Texas Ex at the viewing party enjoyed the game.

Tonight, we are going to have our monthly Happy Hour gathering. A lot of overseas Texas Exes and current students are in town, so we are expecting a much better turnout than normal.

Date: January 6, 2006 (Friday)
Time: 7-9pm
Venue: Dickens Bar, Excelsior Hotel, Causeway Bay

As usual, you are welcome to bring your friends along.

Let's celebrate the success of our football team in the gathering!

RSVP. For more information, please call Benjamin Chang at 62 443 443 or Victor Nip at 9218 7210.
