PROVO, Utah – A BYU fan was caught in some embarrassing attire at LaVell Edwards Stadium, a red coat. To make the situation worse, she was caught on television frantically dancing to try and stay warm.
The “Loyal, Strong, and True” Cougar fan braved the “Rain or Snow” weather in Provo for BYU’s game against No. 14 Boise State on Saturday, October 19.
Brooke Anderson or @brooke_lynn108 tweeted about her coat after the game after a clip of her went viral on social media.

“I don’t know if I should confirm or deny that this is me. Can someone buy me a cougar blue coat please??” tweeted Anderson.
She later confirmed that was indeed her wearing the red coat, the color of BYU’s main rival, Utah.

“Just trying to warm up,” Anderson also tweeted.
Multiple fans have responded to Anderson’s plea for a new “BYU colored” coat. Some have offered to Venmo her money or buy her a new coat.
Former Utah and current Los Angeles Rams defensive back Eric Weddle chimed in saying “Think she is a secret UTE fan.”
