Now there's fines involved, and now Kansas' head coach kind of looks like a liar.
Dan, you know of the Texas Tech tortilla throwing tradition?
Love those peanuts.
Anyway, so this past weekend, huge game between Texas Tech and Kansas, and the fans were throwing tortillas, of course.
And over the summer, the Big 12 said, if you throw tortillas, you'll get a warning, and then eventually you'll get 15-yard penalties because you can't throw stuff on the field, which
you know, makes a lot of sense.
Even though tortilla is very soft, they don't hurt.
They're not hurting anyone, but it is a pain in the ass to clean up and you shouldn't throw stuff on the field regardless.
Anyway, so the Texas Tech fans were throwing the tortillas.
Texas Tech was getting fined.
And Lance Leopold, the Kansas head coach, was not happy after the game.
And there was a very awkward handshake between him and Joey McGuire, the Texas Tech head coach.
And you can hear the audio on it.
I'm not sure if we have the video, Dan.
If we do, we'll play it.
But you can hear the audio.
Here's some expletives were said during this very tense handshake.
Well, so after this game, so Texas Tech won big, but I will add one of the penalties was when the game was still pretty close.
So both coaches were, I think, exasperated by the fact that the tortillas kept coming even after the first 15-yard penalty.
Afterwards, Leopold said that someone threw a pocket knife at one of his players on the field.
