The Cruz Curse is alive and well and doomed Texas A&M

The Cruz Curse is real and there has been a couple of threads about this curse.

If Cruz roots for a home team, that team loses. Cruz helped Georgia beat the University of Texas earlier this year

Carnival Cruz attended the University of Texas vs. Texas A&M game yesterday which took place at the home field of Texas A&M


Cruz is well aware of the Cruz curse and claimed that he was rooting for Texas A&M the first half and for the Univ. of Texas the second half


The Univ of Texas scored all 17 points in the first half when Cruz was rooting for Texas A&M



The Cruz Curse is alive and well

Now, I don't blame them one bit for being angry, after folks have been pointing out (including this season with his appearance at Texas A&M vs. Notre Dame) that he has shown up with Texas teams losing in the past. However, there's one problem this go-round: Cruz sent out a post on X to let everyone know that after his appearances for campaign rallies in both New Braunfels and Boerne on Saturday... he was NOT at the game.

There is nothing in that picture that identifies it as at that football game. It doesn't even look like any area you would see in a football stadium. Beware of random trolls posting fake pictures on the internet.
