While Aaron Judge was undoubtedly the biggest winner from Tuesday night’s American League record-breaking home run, college football fans everywhere could not be more thrilled to see the home run chase come to an end.
Throughout last Saturday’s college football action, fans watching games on the ESPN networks had to deal with live look-ins of Judge’s at-bats only to watch teams pitch around the Yankees slugger. The look-in decision took no consideration to regional rooting interests — everyone *needed* to see Judge’s at-bats as they happened. That included a game between Tulane and Houston.
But leave it to Tulane to keep the joke going with elite content.
Uniform reveal, but Aaron Judge hit his 62nd homer

Tulane was ready to unveil the week’s uniforms for Saturday’s game against East Carolina, but the wait would have to continue because Judge’s 62nd home run got in the way. They cut the video short to show a replay of Judge’s home run.
It was an excellent take on the Aaron Judge meme that fans had created this past week, and everyone seemed to love Tulane’s effort.
This was how Twitter reacted
