have a grackle problem, so I like them, too. Does UT still fire guns to

strolling the campus at dusk rather than the grackle
They shot off one of those grackle guns outside Painter one day,
during the middle of an afternoon guest lecture. The startled face on
the poor visitor, looking around to see if it was time to duck. From
the back of the hall someone says, "Not to worry. It's just Texas."
The noise did get rid of the grackles, or should I say moved them
around temporarily. The guns were pretty controversial as I recall.
At least they didn't direct their attack from the vantage point of the
Tower.......
