    Manziel Mania

    Johnny Manziel's wild Austin weekend: Kicked out of one frat party, welcomed to another

    The interwebs are all atwitter with sightings of Texas A&M sophomore quarterback Johnny Manziel in Austin over the weekend.

    According to social media, Manziel got kicked out of a frat party at the University of Texas in Austin on Friday. Curry Shoff uploaded a video on YouTube showing a person he says is Manziel in a pink shirt dodging debris on his way out of a patio party.

    In the video, onlookers shout obscenities and there's light applause as the person purported to be Manziel exits the party through a gate. Deadspin is already on the case, digging up Twitter evidence to tie Manziel to the Austin party scene on the night in question.

    In addition to tweets from Shoff (which blast Manziel for drinking Keystone Light), University of Texas student Lydia Messina also claims to have been at the party with Johnny Football.

    But it looks like the brothers at Phil Gamma Delta (Fiji) were more accommodating. Deadspin also tracked down Manziel at the Fiji Island party on Saturday where he wasn't asked to leave. But he was oddly wearing a Tim Tebow New York Jets jersey. (See tweets below.)

    Meanwhile, Manziel's Twitter feed had been silent since July 18, when he thanked his fans and fellow Aggies for their support in the wake of his dismissal from the Manning Passing Academy. It was rumored that Manziel was too hungover to participate in the elite camp run by Archie, Cooper, Peyton and Eli Manning. Manziel denied that characterization, claiming he simply overslept.

    Manziel broke his 10-day Twitter fast on Sunday to share a snarky message with his 400,000 followers.

    Last time I checked double digit win columns and championships are what matters.

    In light of his recent party choices, one has to wonder whether or not Manziel's longhorn tattoo is really fake after all.

    FIFA fan policies

    FIFA to allow disposable water bottles in Houston Stadium for World Cup

    In a change of policy, FIFA will now allow fans to bring their own water bottles to some stadiums during the World Cup, including Reliant Stadium, called "Houston Stadium" during the tournament.

    FIFA's decision adjusted a policy that had barred spectators from bringing refillable water bottles into the tournament’s 16 stadiums across North America, including some with limited or no shade from the sun.

    FIFA in a social media post said fans will be permitted to bring one, soft, plastic, 20-ounce, factory-sealed, disposable water bottle into any match taking place in the United States or Canada.

    In a video released by FIFA, Chief Operating Officer Heimo Schirgi said fans will still not be permitted to bring in hard sided, reusable water bottles “due to safety and security reasons.”

    FIFA stated, “for the avoidance of doubt, reusable water bottles may not be brought into the stadium.”

    FIFA’s stadium rules had stated that fans could bring in a transparent, reusable bottle up to one liter, or 33.8 ounces capacity. On Thursday, June 4, the “Stadium Code of Conduct” update was criticized by an English fan group, which argued FIFA had given assurances on carrying empty plastic bottles to fill with freely available water at a tournament where heat and extreme weather are expected to be a factor.

    Seven FIFA World Cup matches will be played in Houston. AT&T Stadium in Arlington. They includes Germany vs. Curaçao (June 14), Portugal vs. Congo DR (June 17), Netherlands vs. Sweden (June 20), Portugal vs. Uzbekistan (June 23), and Cabo Verde vs. Saudi Arabia (June 26)

    The stadium will also host a Round of 32 match (June 29) and one Round of 16 match (July 4).
