You never know who will show up at a Texas Exes tailgate.

Case in point: former Longhorn swimmer and two-time Olympic gold medalist Ricky Berens, BBA ’10, swung by the Etter-Harbin Alumni Center before Saturday’s season opener to film a segment for YNN.

Texas Exes ambassador Jacqueline Harris, BS ’09, (left) and Alcalde assistant editor Rose Cahalan got the chance to pose with Berens, who’s hot off two medal-winning swims at this summer’s London Games. (He snagged a silver and a gold—way to represent Texas!)

Also on hand at Saturday’s tailgate was former NFL linebacker Robert Jones, who won three Super Bowls with the Dallas Cowboys in the early ’90s. His son, Cayleb Jones, is a freshman wide receiver for the Longhorns this year.

Admission into the Texas Exes gameday tailgate is an exclusive member benefit, of course, so click here if you’re interested in joining. YNN is filming again with some mystery guests this coming weekend, and you never know which bona fide Longhorn celebrities you’ll get to rub elbows with…
