Senator Ted Cruz of Texas is once again facing the wrath of sports fans who believe his presence brings misfortune to their teams. The latest incident occurred at the Sugar Bowl matchup between the Texas Longhorns and the Washington Huskies, where the Longhorns suffered a 37-31 defeat, thwarting their chance to advance to the national championship game.
This is not the first time Cruz has been accused of jinxing a team. In the past, his attendance at sporting events has coincided with disappointing outcomes for the teams he supports. During the American League Championship Series, Cruz cheered for the Houston Astros, only to witness their defeat. Similarly, in 2018, he faced blame for allegedly jinxing the Houston Rockets, leading to their elimination from the NBA playoffs. The curse seemingly extended to college sports in 2017 when fans pointed to a poorly timed Cruz selfie as the reason for Texas Tech’s defeat in the NCAA finals.
In response to previous accusations, Cruz vehemently denied being a sports jinx. Last year, after criticism following the Astros’ loss, he labeled Rolling Stone magazine as “lying hacks” for publishing an article about fans imploring him to stay away from games. Despite his pushback, the recent defeat of the Texas Longhorns has reignited the controversy surrounding Cruz’s alleged sports curse.
The aftermath of the Longhorns’ loss has seen fans expressing their frustration and disappointment on social media. Many are blaming Cruz for the team’s poor performance, citing a pattern of defeats associated with his attendance at crucial games. The notion of Cruz as a sports jinx has gained traction among certain circles, creating a buzz that extends beyond the realm of politics.
As fans debate whether Cruz is genuinely a harbinger of bad luck for their favorite teams, the senator finds himself once again entangled in a web of sports superstitions. The recurrence of such incidents raises questions about the intersection of politics and sports, with Cruz unwittingly becoming a symbol of frustration for sports enthusiasts.
Whether Cruz’s presence is genuinely cursed or merely coincidental, the debate persists. Sports fans, ever passionate and superstitious, continue to scrutinize the senator’s attendance at games, pondering the impact it may have on their teams’ fortunes. As the controversy unfolds, Ted Cruz remains at the center of a peculiar intersection between politics and sports superstition.
