Kiera Mayer, the stunning Texas football fan who went viral at last weekend's game against Georgia, has shared more photos of the confrontation on social media.
The cameras repeatedly returned to Mayer, a student at the University of Arkansas, during Saturday night's blockbuster college game, and Web soon caught on.
In a post that racked up thousands of likes on X, Barstool Sports shared a photo of Mayer on the stream and wrote, “Tonight we are all rooting for Texas.”
And now, Mayer has posted more photos from the day she posed with friends for her nearly 4,000 Instagram followers.
The game itself ended in disappointment for Mayer, with Texas losing 30-15 to Georgia.
Viral Texas football fan Kiera Mayer has been sharing new images on her social media.
Mayer, a student from Arkansas, was caught on television cameras during the college football clash.
It was a disappointing score for Mayer and Texas as they lost to rivals Georgia.
The game itself was marred by Texas fans throwing bottles onto the field to protest an officiating decision.
This led the team's most famous fan, Matthew McConaughey, to denounce fans' “nonsense” behavior in a fiery statement Monday night.
“Yes, that call was stupid, but we are better than that,” he wrote. 'Longhorn Nation knows how to show up, stand out like no other and still keep it classy.
'So in the future, let's clean up that kind of nonsense and leave it behind forever. We have to hold hands on that.”
Mayer wasn't the only fan to enjoy 15 minutes of fame on a big night for college football.
Grant Walther also went viral on social media when cameras focused on him looking disappointed towards the end of the game; fans joked that he looked like Conway Twitty's grandson.
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.Com, Walther said he wanted to turn his newfound fame into an opportunity to raise money for charity.
“I love the idea of turning this into some kind of charity opportunity,” he said. 'When you are given an opportunity like this, the best thing you can do is pass it on to others.
Mayer's next chance to cheer on Texas at home is Nov. 9 when they host Florida.
'I know Matthew McConaughey was cutting players' hair. Maybe I can cut mine in the field and raise some money for cancer awareness. My grandmother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and then beat it.
“This is the perfect platform to stand up for the things that matter most to me.”
The Longhorns, 6-1 on the season, will be on the road next Saturday, but will return to their home fans the following week when they host the Florida Gators.
