Conservative media figures are used to having their liberal counterparts and social media users to call them a wide variety of insults. But I’d be willing to bet that few have been attacked by the ticket office of a university.
Outkick founder Clay Travis received that honor when The Citadel’s ticket office accused him of enjoying racism over a series of direct messages on Twitter.
Outkick is currently investigating the tweets, which do not have the professionalism you would expect from a university with the prestige of the Citadel.
“You’re the one talking about racism?” someone with access to the school’s account wrote in the DMs. “You are a racist you know that right?”
The Citadel ticket office evidently hates me. And I was just about to buy season tickets too. pic.twitter.com/ZWPVpirm7U

The Citadel followed up with a lengthy apology, which had the tone of being sincere and deeply apologetic for the actions of the rogue individual.
The Citadel is an inclusive institution, open to people from all walks of life and with varying points of view. We are actively looking to look into the matter and will take all appropriate actions when we discover the source of the messages.

Guess this is all in a days work for someone as willing to call out woke media garbage as Travis is. However, its safe to say he won’t be attending any Citadel football games soon.
