Tailgates and Baseball Games with the Texas Iron Spikes

Swing batter, batter! Kicking off some April springtime baseball, Texas Spirits came out to Disch-Falk Field to watch UT take on UT Pan America. Ladies flocked to tailgate with the Texas Iron Spikes before the game where washers were played, hot dogs were eaten, and laughs were shared amongst old and new friends. UT won the game 6 to 1 against UT Pan Am as the Spirits cheered them on from the stands. We can't wait to dawn out cowboy boots and scarves at the next home game! Hook 'em!
