Texas Longhorns football fan is kicked off rival Texas A&M campus for bizarre reason ahead of biggest game of the year

A Texas football fan was kicked off the Texas A&M campus after showing his support by riding a Longhorn bull down the street ahead of tonight's big game.

A remarkable video showed the man - wearing a cowboy hat and carrying his dog - stopping at the traffic lights, before heading down the street towards the stadium in College Station.

The TikTok clip, posted by 'Silly Sandra', quickly went viral, alongside the caption: 'People watching at its finest here at the TX / A&M game!!'

Alongside the man on his Longhorn bull was another man on a horse, and the outcome of the situation was cleared up by campus police with a message on social media.

Posting to X, a spokesperson wrote: 'University Rules Violation - PA 68. A man was riding a horse and another man & his dog were riding a longhorn. Agreed to leave campus.'

It did not appear to be the only bizarre incident campus cops would face ahead of the huge game, with a second post shortly after reading: 'Two men wearing reflective vests & hard hats entered the stadium with fake construction credentials. Arrested for Criminal Trespass.'

Fans have been desperately trying to get their hands on tickets for the game, which is the most expensive in college football history - with the average price well over $1,000.

The game and rivalry runs deep in the Lone Star State, with the first face-off between the universities dating back to 1894 and eventually becoming a Thanksgiving tradition. 

In 2011, the foes played their last game when A&M left the Big 12 Conference both teams were a part of at the time.

The Aggies joined the Southeastern Conference, (SEC) which prevented the match up. 

However, the Longhorns are now also part of the SEC, making the game possible again, although it has moved to Saturday instead of it usually slot on the turkey holiday.

Adding to the hype, the winner of the game could position themselves to play in the SEC championship in Atlanta.

'Now that it's game day, prime time, for a shot in Atlanta, the ticket prices probably match the demand to get in the building,' A&M coach Mike Elko told reporters earlier this week.

'I expect our guys, I know our 12th Man will show up. I know they'll hold on to those tickets regardless of what anybody asks for, that we'll protect and that we'll fill this place with Aggies.'

Students at A&M, where kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at Kyle Field, get free tickets.

School officials and fans have begged the co-eds not to sell their tickets to Longhorns fans-- a nightmare scenario in this bitter feud. 

'Ticket prices are absolutely insane,' Brendan Brimage, a Texas A&M student the Austin Fox station. 

Ambulances were called out to the football stadium nine times on Nov. 20 as tickets were released to undergrads and people were crushed in the mayhem, the Houston Chronicle reported.

'I couldn't move my arms,' senior Aubrey Hollas told the paper.

'At some point, I was able to get it [my phone] out. I was texting my mom, and I was telling her how bad it was. She asked me if she should call the police, and I said "Yes."'

'I was fine at the time. I could breathe. But I was thinking of the people around me who could've had panic attacks or who couldn't breathe: they would have no way of being able to get out of that crowd.'

With tragedy averted, the demand for entry to the game means many wanting to witness state history will be priced out and forced to watch on TV. 

'My friend, a close friend of mine that went to A&M, we were going to go together, and we were like, It is not worth it; that's a lot of money to spend on one game,' Longhorns fan Juan Meraz told Fox 7.
