Ted Cruz roasted as woman's reaction to seeing senator at a football game goes viral

COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS: A recent football game between Texas A&M and Notre Dame became an unexpected social media sensation, not for the gameplay but for a viral moment involving Senator Ted Cruz, as per Newsweek.

A video showing a woman's reaction to seeing the Texas senator at the event has garnered over 1 million views on X, formerly known as Twitter, sparking widespread online discussion and a mix of reactions.

Lucy Rohden's reaction to Ted Cruz at football game sparks flurry of reactions

The video in question was shared by Lucy Rohden, a producer and on-screen talent for the sports-focused show 'Dan Le Batard Show With Stugotz'.

In the seven-second clip, Rohden is seen mimicking a mild vomiting motion as Cruz walks past her during the game.

The video, posted without any accompanying text, captures Cruz turning to face another man on the field, followed by Rohden’s discreet yet pointed gesture of apparent disgust.

This brief yet expressive reaction struck a chord with many on social media. The video quickly amassed over 1.1 million views, alongside 27,000 likes and 2,800 shares on X.

Among the many reactions, a notable one came from the 'Mueller, She Wrote' podcast account, which commented simply, "Same, girl."

The podcast, hosted by three comedians, originally gained popularity for covering special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

Another said, "Communists often have that reaction to liberty."

"Not use to the alpha males in the house," wrote one person.  Another added, "'when his aura is just too strong."

One individual wrote, "I bet she is still single. Probably single forever or she cannot handle the vibes of an alpha male." Another pointed out, "Ted Cruz always looks like the antagonist of a 1990s live-action Disney film where the hero is a dog."

One netizen remarked, "Ted looks like he’s wearing his high school suit." Another added, "Yeah 100% Guy is a phony."

Ted Cruz's attendance at sports events often been met with disdain from fans

Ted Cruz's attendance at sports events, particularly those involving Texas teams, has often been met with disdain from fans.

Texas A&M, which Cruz was there to support, ultimately lost the game 23-13. This loss fed into a long-running joke among sports fans who have dubbed Cruz a "curse," believing that his presence brings bad luck to the teams he supports.

This sentiment has led some to call for the senator to be banned from attending Texas sporting events altogether.

The timing of this viral moment is particularly notable as it coincides with Cruz’s ongoing campaign for re-election.

The two-term senator is facing off against Democratic challenger Representative Colin Allred in the upcoming November election. A recent ActiVote poll showed Cruz holding a 10.4-point lead over Allred, but the race remains one to watch.

Cruz’s presence at the Texas A&M game was acknowledged by Texas A&M Athletic Director Trev Alberts, who expressed his gratitude for the senator's attendance.

According to the Houston Chronicle, Alberts stated, "We would like to welcome Sen. Cruz back to Aggieland and I'll tell you how grateful we are that you are here. We know that you've been here many times, and I talked to [Texas A&M President] Gen. Welsh about this, and he promised me that you're going to be good luck tonight."

Cruz replied with a confident, "Amen."
