Viral Song Chronicles Texas Tech Students' Arrest for Rushing Football Field
Lubbock, Texas – A recent incident at Jones AT&T Stadium has become the subject of a viral song, after two Texas Tech students were arrested for attempting to rush the field during a rain-delayed football game against Oregon State. The event, which occurred on a Saturday, saw two individuals, identified as roommates of the video's creators, jump from stadium seats onto the turf. According to the song, performed by Slade Stone and a friend, one of the individuals made a "break to no avail" as security guards, described as "fast as hell," apprehended him. The other attempted to escape but was also caught, leading to a "big old human tug-of-war" before being cuffed and taken downtown. The song humorously notes that one of the arrested individuals even "screamed it's my birthday" during the arrest, but was still taken into custody as "it's not legal to rush the Jones." The video, uploaded by Slade Stone, quickly garnered significant attention, with viewers praising the song's wit and creativity. Comments on the video reflect a mix of amusement and appreciation for the friends' unique way of commemorating their roommates' misadventure. One commenter remarked, "Are you even friends if you don’t commemorate their arrest in a song and viral TikTok?" while another suggested, "How do we get this played in the stadium next home game?" The incident and subsequent musical recounting highlight a humorous, albeit legally questionable, moment in college sports culture.
