It didn’t take long for a brand to find themselves in hot water over their costume on Halloween.

On Sunday morning, the University of Texas tweeted out a picture of their mascot Bevo the longhorn in a ghost costume. Texas immediately deleted the tweet after fans compared Bevo’s ghost costume to a KKK klan outfit.

People had some thoughts on Texas putting Bevo in a ghost costume.
