Make damn sure no McConahey and no Mannings on the tu sideline next year. They can buy a ticket and sit in the stands like everybody else.

If you have a ticket, offer it to him for free. After the game, ask him to send you a copy of his new book autographed. Keep for you kid or yourself. 20 years from now you'll have something to talk about it.

This thread took a weird turn.

There are tickets for sale. Him asking if anyone has one is obviously asking for a free one. I don't blame him for that, he will probably get one. But to pretend that wasn't the ask is weird.

Who knew he had so many white knights on TexAgs to defend his honor? lol

Honestly, why would he get a press pass anyway? He is a local artist.

But to also be clear, I am all about the pettiness to block Matthew at Kyle next year.

Was he ever given a pass in any of the previous 31 years? Seems like he would have mentioned that if this was unique.

Sounds like he doesnt get a press pass because hes not a member of the press.

So many other questions...he is asking for any ticket to get photos? OK...go ****ing buy one...

Also, why does he need to do that? Isnt he a painter? Plenty of photos taken by actual photograhers will be available for him to clip to the canvas.

The guy should never get a sideline photographer credential.

much less take to social media and cry about it and ask if somebody can buy him a single ticket...

Not a very professional look Benny.

I want a commemorative Knox painting of him NOT getting a field pass complete with rev background collages and merican flags.

This kind of back and forth is mostly why I keep coming back to the zoo.

I can't tell if this is a serious post. The idea that a Knox book, autographed or not, is something worth acquiring is baffling to me.

So is he getting the same type of comments on his X account?

Not too outraged at this one. I'm sure there are a ton of credentials being issued but far fewer than the number of people who want one. Doesn't seem like one I would necessary expect to get one. Especially for a big away game.

How will we ever survive without great works like these?!







This will go down in infamy like refusing to let Michelangelo paint more chapels

Angry Knox outside the stadium gate, disproportionate facial features and limbs…

He's holding the leash of a one-eyed snarling Rev… Two of her legs are surprisingly normal, the other two are approximately 3 feet long but have tiny little micro-paws.

Cassius Howell's 3 consecutive sacks float overhead for some reason.

#17 Öhrstrom is holding Thor's hammer menacingly over a lopsided Bevo's head…

Damn wanted to see his interpretation of Matthew M with the biggest head imaginable

Matthew McConaughey gave a hilariously over-the-top speech to Texas football

2016 he went off the rails giving a hilarious pep talk...which as far as I can tell, his publicist has scrubbed from the internet...

No, Ags really look like that. Take a good look at the 12th man statue. It is called motivated perception and knoxy is just showing us truth.

You can bet Matthew McConaughey will be there to inspire the sips on.

In most situations, colleges give out press passes like they're pez because it's not that big of a deal.

For a massive game, they limit them to actual members of the working press and their A+++ list like McConaughey. It's pretty debatable for Knox to call himself a "photojournalist" in the first place when all he's doing is taking photos to turn into artwork to sell on his own website.
