More Controversial Patterson Policies in the Offing?

University of Texas Athletic Director Steve Patterson has recently ruffled feathers among Longhorn Football fans by announcing controversial plans for the program, including playing a home football game in Mexico City, "fan experience" on-field pre-game events including live DJs, a $25 charge for alumni tours of the football facilities, and a no re-entry policy at DKR Memorial Stadium. Other risky concepts Patterson is floating include:

  • Replacing Texas state flag at Longhorn games with banner advertisement for E's "Keeping up with the Kardashians."
  • Requiring ushers to conduct routine checks of the net worth of any fans seated in Sections 3-7.
