Texas is gonna charge Texas Tech's band $100 per person for tickets. The old SWC schools have had a long standing tradition of allowing visiting teams' bands free football game tickets. Been goin on for 60 cot damn years until now.

Must be really strapped for cash.

Texas will charge Texas Tech band for admission

Tech has been charging bands for Tickets for years, but it is bad if Texas does it? This is the definition of pot/kettle, so stupid

Pretty much. Tech charged Texas band last year apparently, but now Tech is pissed?

Sounds about right for those lowlifes.

You would think texas is broke. Coaches paying for their food and now opposing bands being charged. Lol! I don't know what's happening down there but I'm sure enjoying all the drama.

this just shit on my tantrum:

Initial reports condemned Texas’ athletic director Gary Patterson, citing greed and a bevy of other reasons why the Goin’ Band was being charged. But according to Texas Tech senior associate athletics director of operations Robert Giovannetti, all four of the Texas schools in the Big 12 agreed to begin charging to have band members attend games; although, Texas Tech hasn’t had to pay Texas in the past to attend.

:L @ me
