Saturday’s Texas Tech vs. Colorado matchup may not have gone the Red Raiders’ way on the field, but the student section sure found a way to leave their mark—by pelting the turf with vape pens, BuzzBalls, and booze. Because nothing screams school spirit like turning the 50-yard line into a landfill.
Coach Joey McGuire admitted he was shocked Tech didn’t get penalized for the debris storm, while Deion Sanders—never one to miss a soundbite—said McGuire apologized and even reminded him of wrangling his own rowdy students a few weeks back. That’s right, two grown men coaching multi-million-dollar programs had to stop mid-season to play substitute teacher for drunk undergrads.
Tech Athletics later dropped a canned PR statement praising fans’ “passion and enthusiasm,” which is corporate-speak for “please stop throwing your mini liquor bottles before ESPN starts calling this The Jones County Dump.”
If you’re paying student section ticket prices just to hurl your vape onto the field, maybe it’s time to admit the real addiction isn’t nicotine—it’s chaos.
