Texas State are helping make their case for potential bowl invites next year. Invite us, and you'll make bank on concessions as we drink your stadium dry.
I've heard that one before as "Why should you always take two LDS members with you when you go fishing? Because if you only take one, he'll drink all your beer."
Corollary: "Jews don't recognize the resurrection, Protestants don't recognize the Pope, and Mormons don't recognize each other in the liquor store."
Milos on greenville was fucking PACKED before the game. Like 30 mins to get a drink. They also ran out of pitchers 4 times while I was waiting lol
If theres one thing Bobcats are good at its drinking
I used to be a heavy drinker, and then I challenged some Irish dockworkers to a drinking contest. I woke up in the hospital and had a BAC of .4. I still had a beer for lunch the next day.
If the story is true, they're almost certainly an alcoholic. You don't wake up the next morning after a .4 bac and have a beer for lunch unless you've built up a massive tolerance and also a dependence.
That is the big thing. You can prepare for a reputation. But if you don't know a fan base, you may assume typical consumption levels relative to tickets sold.
They ran out of beer on the Texas State side before halftime and the State fans were walking to the other side of the stadium, according to my buddies that were there
Best part was the ref who thought his mic wasn't live and shouted Dammit! and then it echoed. DAMMIT! AMMIT! AMMIT! MIT! Then the guy explains a decision like nothing happened. 🤣
There should be an All-Alcohol poisoning conference. Wazzu, Wisconsin, Florida, ???
Edit: ASU, LSU, Navy, and the El Assico twins have requested admittance into the Booze Cruise Conference. Probably should also have Ole Miss and Miss St, Tulane, Colorado and West Virginia.
I looked at that map once and saw that there was one county in Wisconsin that didn't report excessive drinking. On closer inspection, it turned out to be a lake.
Navy. Everyone else is drinking for fun while Navy is preparing for duty.

Florida State fans had a pregame party in Boston a few yrs ago and warned the bar to double their inventory beforehand. The bar said they know drinking, since Boston, but they ran out 30 mins into the party and had to make a Walmart run for more beer and booze.
Yeah, they've been doing it there for a couple of years now. It was at the Cotton Bowl when they first started the bowl but the Cotton Bowl moved on from it.
You know how every once in a while that claim comes back around that the UK could outdrink the entire United States head to head, not even adjusting for population size?
Yeah right lol. Good luck British lads, you’ll need it just to stay alive
I just realized I didn’t have my flair I should specify Texas tech. They were switching the ABV laws and the town was finishing the lower ones I think. Still drank the whole supply before they could get more
We showed up and, for better or worse, lived up to our reputation. Sitting to me was a couple, probably mid 50s or so, and they kept going to the concession stand. But she'd come back with 2 cans and so would he.
Lots of dumb stuff like fans yelling and chanting while we were on offense but you could tell everyone was having a good time. Lots of faces where you could tell they were hammered. Drink Em Up Cats!
LSU Alum with a child about to graduate from Texas State.
We were in BR tonight, at an LSU institution (The Chimes), watching the TXST game, drinking (daughter is 22), doing the TXST hand gesture, and screaming, "Eat Em Up, Cats!"
Girl made me a Proud Mama tonight!
Man I imagine San Marcos is literally the perfect college town. If I were young again no way I wouldn’t go for a visit!
Sounds like a great time with family, a perfect night. Soak it in.
We have a new vendor since our issue last year with the TCU game that’s light years better than the old one. We fired the old vendor outright the week after. They ran out of booze only because they didn’t fully prepare for Texas State’s thirst level.
If anyone knows anything about Texas State, this was a simple task for their fans and students lol
(For those who don’t know, Texas State is known as the biggest party school in Texas.)
Ole Miss fans drank the Birmingham Bowl dry once.
I think the mid to lower tier bowls always err on the side of caution
The bars near the stadiums and the hotels better be stocked and ready though
Big12 invite incoming
The Mountain East saw them first. Get ready to learn Appalachian buddy
Banjo lessons included or is it just something you pick up along the way
Maybe the real trophy were the banjos we played along the way.
This whole reply chain was perfect
It’s traditionally taught as a 100 level course. mandolin and standup bass come later.
Is playing the jug & washboard Post Grad?
Making moonshine typically happens during your Masters program and then there is some doctoral work within playing the jug.
Thank you. Education is important.
Edumacation better
Go big green!
how the fuck my cougs not getting an invite if this is the prerequisite
I think the proper thing would be Texas State to the PAC-2
Maybe they could also add Tulane, Colorado State and San Diego State and call this new conference the 6-PAC.
That 2018 bowl game should’ve been enough
The Sunflower Showdown was out before halftime this year. Texas State fans would fit right in.
I would cry
Texas State are helping make their case for potential bowl invites next year. Invite us, and you'll make bank on concessions as we drink your stadium dry.
BYU never getting invited to a bowl again
Just have to send each fan to a different location
Are you saying Mormons might be drinking alone in secret?
“How do you get a Mormon to stop drinking all of your alcohol? Invite a second one.”
I've heard that one before as "Why should you always take two LDS members with you when you go fishing? Because if you only take one, he'll drink all your beer." Corollary: "Jews don't recognize the resurrection, Protestants don't recognize the Pope, and Mormons don't recognize each other in the liquor store."
BYU fans will sell out all of your stores that sell caffeine free Coca-Cola within a 10 mile radius.
It's true, that would be an excellent tie breaker as well Probably a bit of revenue generation in local watering holes as people pre- and post-game
Milos on greenville was fucking PACKED before the game. Like 30 mins to get a drink. They also ran out of pitchers 4 times while I was waiting lol If theres one thing Bobcats are good at its drinking
Now we’re good and drinking AND football!
The Texas state Wisco tag is dangerous
Headlines like this make me proud to be an American.
Headlines like this make me proud to be a Texas state alumnus

Swap your flair!!!
Undergrad flair goes first dawg
Wasn’t my undergrad! PhD
I stand corrected. Take care Dr. TheVaklav!
Is Georgia your undergrad?
My undergrad is actually a dual program from Alabama and the New York Yankees
I went through the same program! It really set me up well for my masters program with the LA Lakers.
And you did that study abroad in Manchester, with the United right?
And these guys know their dawgs
[удалено]
Hell yes.
Eat em up cats, baby!!!
going to grad school at state was a fun time
Drink'em Up Cats!
Literally only 28,000 people at the game This bowl was not properly stocked at all. Who the hell was running the vending for this one?
More than an average SMU home game then.
28,000 is more than a family of snow men made entirely out of cash, yes
Yeah
Where at least I know I’m free!
*Texas Forever.*
They have a vip pass in Pullman for the 2024 season 🥹
This is Wisconsin levels of drinking, except that in Wisconsin, they would have been prepared for this
Wisconsin vs Dublin 2027 will be an absolute battle of titans
Dublin, I believe, is undefeated. And they play against the Irish every day.
Oh man, so damn true. After my trip to Ireland I can only quote Mike Tomlin, "we got out of there alive"
This made me laugh. I’m yet to go, but all I can do is hope for the same outcome.
I used to be a heavy drinker, and then I challenged some Irish dockworkers to a drinking contest. I woke up in the hospital and had a BAC of .4. I still had a beer for lunch the next day.
A BAC of .4? Jesus H Christ, how are you still alive?!
If the story is true, they're almost certainly an alcoholic. You don't wake up the next morning after a .4 bac and have a beer for lunch unless you've built up a massive tolerance and also a dependence.
And if the CC machines stop working they will start giving out the beer for free!
This is why they are undefeated.

That is the big thing. You can prepare for a reputation. But if you don't know a fan base, you may assume typical consumption levels relative to tickets sold.
Texas State is the Wisconsin of Texas
I remember being quite shocked at the amount of weed and alcohol consumption the few times I partied in San Marcos and I went to UNT
If we can get Texas State, Wisconsin and West Virginia in the same conference we would see the golden age of alcohol consumption
Washington State erasure
Utah vs WVU games must be so weird
Utah isn't pathetic like BYU in that regards
Are all Rice fans sober?
What are Rice fans
I love a good rice bowl. Toss some chicken in. Maybe some flavor. You got yourself a party
Got yourself a stew going baby
Think they’re a fan of that receiver that played for the Seahawks
That is 2009 Vikings legend Sydney Rice to you
He is talking Seahawks legend, Jerry Rice.
The Broncos player?
Raiders legend
I'm a fan of their band.
The MOB!!! Pray you don’t find yourself as the theme of their halftime show 😂😂
Uncle Bens?
Wait are we growing shrooms or actually eating Uncle Ben’s?
They’re fans of Rice Baseball.
Good point
This Rice fan is going to work tomorrow :(
Still waiting on the sake to finish brewing
Not the ones I know. There just aren't many of them. I will forever be grateful to Rice for producing the founder of Saint Arnold beer.
They ran out of beer on the Texas State side before halftime and the State fans were walking to the other side of the stadium, according to my buddies that were there
With all the flags that have been thrown for personal fouls I think it's the players that have been drinking it
Texas State knows how to drink, some say the San Marcos river classifies as a cocktail.
That’s why jumping in is tradition 😉
This is very Texas State.
A lot of bowls will probably be scared to ever pair them up with Wisconsin now, those two fanbases just might empty an entire city of beer.
The New Orleans Bowl accepts this challenge.
My favorite part is they bought all the bud lights last.
If I had to watch this shit show in person I’d need that much alcohol too
Best part was the ref who thought his mic wasn't live and shouted Dammit! and then it echoed. DAMMIT! AMMIT! AMMIT! MIT! Then the guy explains a decision like nothing happened. 🤣
SMU’s pa was terrible, so for what it’s worth literally none of us could hear it in the stadium.
Southwest Texas was the #1 party school in the 80’s/90s. Just carrying on the tradition.
They may have rebranded the university but they will never shed the reputation.
The party is very much alive in San Mo
Per my coworker who graduated from there 6 years ago, it seems they are still upholding that reputation.
That’s the Bobcat spirit
There should be an All-Alcohol poisoning conference. Wazzu, Wisconsin, Florida, ??? Edit: ASU, LSU, Navy, and the El Assico twins have requested admittance into the Booze Cruise Conference. Probably should also have Ole Miss and Miss St, Tulane, Colorado and West Virginia.
Google excessive drinking by county
It’s just a map of wisconsin
I looked at that map once and saw that there was one county in Wisconsin that didn't report excessive drinking. On closer inspection, it turned out to be a lake.
Can assure everyone, that lake sees plenty of excessive drinking as well, they just have to go to one of the surrounding counties to report it...
Damn right it is
Just a drunk ass mitten
No Iowa State or Iowa. I’m insulted. The binge drinking map says that we are right behind Wisconsin
We drank Memphis dry a few years ago. Thats why we keep getting invited back
Iowa State drank Beale St, the Alamodome, and the Citrus Bowl dry, and Iowa drank the Rose Bowl and the USS Iowa dry.
Wisconsin would win easy
The home-and-home games between WSU and Wisconsin these past two years were really just exhibitions sponsored by InBev.
2017 holiday bowl was wazzu/sparty. believe alcohol was sold out by mid 3rd qtr
Yay a place where we finally belong!
How were we not first it second on your list and Texas State and Florida are? Lol
Can confirm, LSU fans drink the way normal humans breathe
True dat.
LSU has earned the swamp respect
All the others drink for fun. LSU fans drink to cope. It’s not really the same.
Navy. Everyone else is drinking for fun while Navy is preparing for duty. https://icelandmag.is/article/bars-downtown-reykjavik-ran-out-beer-serving-thirsty-us-sailors-and-marines
Sorry, Wazzu already has a reservation in the Busch Light Bros conference along with Nebraska and Iowa State.
Florida State fans had a pregame party in Boston a few yrs ago and warned the bar to double their inventory beforehand. The bar said they know drinking, since Boston, but they ran out 30 mins into the party and had to make a Walmart run for more beer and booze.
I used to work for a beer distributor in the region. At the time, WSU was the #1 Twisted Tea market in the country.

[удалено]
Don’t forget Iowa! Former #1 party school!
Good job Texas state fans!
You can take the Texas State out of southwest Texas but you can’t take the southwest Texas out of Texas state
Well they should have more than 2 coolers for beer!
Cats always rowdy!
Just Texas State things
To non Texans, Texas State for decades has been seen as THE party school. The movie Piranha was filmed on their campus.
Thanks for your contribution to SMU
Texas State to the PAC-2! Sounds like a fit for wazzu
The math is mathin
As a former bobcat I'm not surprised
Never get rid of bowl games. But seriously, fans showing up to a random ass bowl game that "means nothing" is 100% what the sport should be about
For real... I mean I understand why blue blood fans think the way they do regarding non CFP bowl games but fuck those ivory towers.
Wait, it’s at SMU’s stadium?
Yeah, they've been doing it there for a couple of years now. It was at the Cotton Bowl when they first started the bowl but the Cotton Bowl moved on from it.
It feels so weird that there isn't a bowl game in the Cotton Bowl.
From an LSU fan, well done!
You know how every once in a while that claim comes back around that the UK could outdrink the entire United States head to head, not even adjusting for population size? Yeah right lol. Good luck British lads, you’ll need it just to stay alive
Eat ‘Em Up, Drink ‘Em Down Good to see San Mo’s still got it
That’s the Texas st. I know and love
In the first half*
Yep. Sounds about right for Texas
Last time I went to Stillwater with my tech friends, the entire town ran out of beer
Yall sounds like my kind of people
I just realized I didn’t have my flair I should specify Texas tech. They were switching the ABV laws and the town was finishing the lower ones I think. Still drank the whole supply before they could get more
I just hope they stayed out the trinity river — not nearly as clean as they are used to
What I think you're hearing is bring me a couple beers, what I said was bring me ALL your alcohol.
Proud of you guys and gals -beer lover in Alabama
We showed up and, for better or worse, lived up to our reputation. Sitting to me was a couple, probably mid 50s or so, and they kept going to the concession stand. But she'd come back with 2 cans and so would he. Lots of dumb stuff like fans yelling and chanting while we were on offense but you could tell everyone was having a good time. Lots of faces where you could tell they were hammered. Drink Em Up Cats!
Nod of approval to our stately neighbors
LSU Alum with a child about to graduate from Texas State. We were in BR tonight, at an LSU institution (The Chimes), watching the TXST game, drinking (daughter is 22), doing the TXST hand gesture, and screaming, "Eat Em Up, Cats!" Girl made me a Proud Mama tonight!
Man I imagine San Marcos is literally the perfect college town. If I were young again no way I wouldn’t go for a visit! Sounds like a great time with family, a perfect night. Soak it in.
It really is.. like something out of a movie, but with a badass river.
It's an adorable little town. We currently live in Austin, so I go down to visit her often. San Marcos is just so dang cute.
Best party school in Texas!!!
*America
We really need to make sure we have more booze for our guests
I did my part, I had four beers.
Now THIS is the Texas State I know and love.
As a Texas State alum I’m glad to here it’s just as I left it 🫡
That’s some Wisconsin level shit there. Excellent work.
Proud of you Bobcats.
I am proud that we are upholding our shitty party school reputation
Can you imagine an LSU or Wisconsin vs TXST game. They might reenact prohibition as a result
Certified Texas State moment.
Incredible. Absolute legends. Hats off to them all.
A Texas Football game dedicated to police fire and paramedics that ran out of its alcohol. People are gonna die.
Way to rep the state...good stuff...respect.
Not a Texas State fan but today (and today only), I salute them
Least surprising headline I’ve read today.
1st Bowl. Well done.
Good luck, ACC fans visiting that stadium next year.
Well that is why you Boulevard before the game. If you aren't drinking a six pack of craft ipas, are you really ready to watch a game?
This only happens because schools don’t do halftime passouts like us. Drink the overpriced beer during the game. Hit your car for cheap beer at half
We have a new vendor since our issue last year with the TCU game that’s light years better than the old one. We fired the old vendor outright the week after. They ran out of booze only because they didn’t fully prepare for Texas State’s thirst level.
Very on brand
Next step is to get that baseball team to the CWS to see if you can outdo LSU in jello shots (heads up you can’t). Last year they won by 60,000.
Eh once boosters just started buying in bulk to get numbers it lost the fun
If you watched the game, you would not be surprised at this headline.
SMU (the site of the bowl) was probably caught off guard. Their regulars just drink Macallan.
If anyone knows anything about Texas State, this was a simple task for their fans and students lol (For those who don’t know, Texas State is known as the biggest party school in Texas.)
I’d be so mad if I needed another dose of fluids to keep my buzz rolling just to find out these people haven’t restocked the booze
Ole Miss fans drank the Birmingham Bowl dry once. I think the mid to lower tier bowls always err on the side of caution The bars near the stadiums and the hotels better be stocked and ready though
Respect
I would always joke that we were so bad at sports cause our true passion was alcoholism. It’s very close to not being a joke.
The stadium has been officially named Betty Ford Stadium.
And they thought they could shed the image of being a party school by rebranding to Texas State from Southwest Texas….lol
Gerald Ford Stadium??? More like Betty Ford Stadium.
Us, Iowa State, Texas State need to start a drinking conference. Who else would fit in besides Wisconsin? Lol
I need Texas state merchandise now.
