… but it’s just the latest effort on the part of New Mexico State University to get someone to sit through one of their football games.
[U]niversity President Garrey Carruthers and others have raised money to counter the often dismal student attendance at Aggies (0-4) games.
Among the prizes are $2,000, $250 and a VIP parking pass.
The winner of the $2,000 will be selected from all main campus NMSU students who are taking at least one credit at the school. If the student is there during the fourth quarter, he or she will collect the reward. If not, the prize money will be saved for the next game.
The Aggies have lost 15 straight games and have been beaten by a combined 201-62 this season.
Can you collect if you’re just, like, there? Do you have to be conscious?

UD, that would be hilarious, that the winner was passed out drunk and had to be revived in order to get their check…
