Yahoo Sports The Ted Cruz curse has Texas fans VERY nervous about his JD Vance bet
Texas senator Ted Cruz thinks he's doing the right thing by betting with the soon-to-be Vice President J.D. Vance on the Longhorns beating Ohio State on Friday night in the College Football Playoff game in the Cotton Bowl.
But he is not. Because there's the Ted Cruz Curse to contend with.
You see, whenever Cruz shows up to a game -- see, the Texas A&M loss to Notre Dame, that time Texas Tech lost to Virginia, the Rockets' Game 7 loss to the Warriors and so on -- the Lone Star State team tends to lose.
The good news for Longhorns fans: he just made a bet with Vance, so maybe that doesn't count as invoking the curse. We'll see though! Texas die-hards are nervous.
The only possible answer is Blue Bell ice cream. Plus Texas BBQ & Shiner Bock beer.
But, it won’t matter because the Horns are gonna win! Texas by 5. #HookEm https://t.co/9h2dS6AqJC— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) January 7, 2025
Hey Ted.
It’s going to snow in Dallas. Go to Cancun instead of the game.

I guess with the weather expected Friday we won’t have to worry about Ted Cruz being at the game. He’ll be in Cancun. #HookEm
