Texas Tech evacuates athletics offices and football facility

[Harry]

Texas Tech evacuated its athletics administration offices inside Jones AT&T Stadium and the nearby football training facility Tuesday afternoon in fear one of two tall lighting fixtures inside the stadium could come down.

University and city emergency personnel have secured the area and they are trying to get the fixture back under control.

Jones AT&T Stadium has two standalone lighting fixtures. They are located in the southeast and northeast corners to complement lighting on top of the press box on the west side.

The problem area is the southeast corner.

Oh it's just a light fixture. I thought the wind was probably blowing in from Lubbock Feeders again.
