Brownsville Satire: Parody at the Border by the Sea

Brownsville: where the history is rich, the seafood is fresh, and the humidity is a physical entity trying to drown you. Our satirical coverage of Brownsville dives deep into the imaginary inner workings of UT-RGV’s campus politics, the fabricated drama of the Gladys Porter Zoo, and the completely made-up secret society that controls the Spaceport. We love the BROWNS, but we love making fun of them more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do you actually hate the Bobcats?

A: No, we are legally required to say nice things about ocelots. Our sports satire is all in good fun.

Q: Are the zoo animals actually planning a coup?

A: No, the giraffes are peaceful. Any article suggesting otherwise is pure parody.

Q: Is the Spaceport really going to Mars?

A: Not yet, and our articles about it launching tamales into orbit are entirely fictional.
