Many college football fans show their school pride by putting up a flag or a sign outside their house. Some might even have a ceramic mascot by the front door, but this Texas Longhorns fan went all out to make sure everyone in the neighborhood is aware that this house is a Texas house. 

A flag is for amateurs. This is how you show proper school pride. 

That is a tree carved to look like a human hand, and I must say they nailed it. 

Let's take a moment to appreciate the craftsmanship. Someone spent an inordinate amount of time carving this tree into a very realistic hand throwing up the Hook 'Em sign, and they deserve to be saluted. Well done. 

As for the fan -- who may or may not be the one who carved this giant tree sculpture -- this is as intense as it gets with regards to supporting your team.
