Ice Bats

October 14 marks the first game of the fall season, as the Ice Bats face off against the Fort Worth Brahmas. After only four years since they first laced up, the Bats finished second in their division last year, making it all the way to the semifinals, filling on average 6,000 of the 7,000 stadium seats at the Travis Co. Expo Center. While you won't see Ice Bats in cowboy hats (at least while the game is on), you might have a chance to get up close and personal with FANG, the team mascot.
