Football game attendees violators were threatened with a time out and, for subsequent offenses, a 15 yard penalty for Texas Tech if tortillas were thrown onto the field. The photograph appears on the cover page of the September 12, 1995 issue of The University Daily. The caption underneath the photo states "Tossing the information out: During a news conference Monday, Tech Athletic Director Bob Bockrath shows the Lubbock media a flier that will be distributed outside Jones Stadium at Tech football games. The flier is designed to remind fans that the NCAA has ruled that tortilla tossing during home games will cost the team a 15-yard penalty. Tech administrators have repeatedly stated their disapproval of the 3-year old tradition. Students have mixed reactions concerning tortilla tossing and the new NCAA rule."1 print : b&w : 8 x 10 in.The images in this collection are for study purposes, teaching, classroom projection and research only.
