What is a TUNNEL CAT?
TUNNEL CATS are boys and girls in Grades PK-6 who have the opportunity to run through the Wildcat Victory Tunnel
before each regular-season home football game. Each TUNNEL CAT will receive a T-SHIRT and FREE ADMISSION to
all regular-season home football games (parents/guardians must buy a ticket).
How do I join TUNNEL CATS?
ALL REGISTRATIONS ARE ONLINE. Use the QR Code above (easiest!) OR go to the PYSO website
(palestineyouthsportsorganization.com) and click on the provided link to the Lone Star Online Store. YOU
ARE REGISTERED FOR TUNNEL CATS WHEN YOU ORDER A SHIRT! Credit and debit cards may be used to
