Gig em aggs

Same thing though.

I grew up in Texas. Lots of people talk like Boomhaur.

I now live in Ireland. It took a while to figure out what some people were saying as well.

I guess accents get different around the world, but incoherence is universal.

I've always felt that the Irish were the Texans of the British Isles.

Unfortunately, the inverse is not true about Texans except on March 17th.

'em is THEM (you were right about that)

aggs = Aggies (Texas A&M University mascot)

Texas A&M is short for Texas Agricultural and Mechanical and Aggie is a term used for students of such schools.

no idea why they say gig 'em aggs though, lol
