"The Ellen DeGeneres Show" held a local Twitter live shot at the University of Houston on Tuesday, October 24th.
Ellen tweeted on Monday and Tuesday inviting Houston Astros fans to arrive to the E. Cullen Building on campus dressed in the biggest costumes they could find for a chance to win World Series tickets.
I’ve got something very big planned for tomorrow. If you’re anywhere near @UHouston, be ready. #EarnHistory

Via live shot, Ellen asks her fans to rewrite the lyrics to "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" explaining why they should go to a championship game.
The finalists with the best costumes were narrowed down, and after singing their songs, Ellen declared UH students Damian Falcon, Tahj Bell, and Jesus Quiroga the winners of the World Series tickets
I can’t believe the amazing turnout at @UHouston today. Thank you to each and every person who showed up. You’re all incredible.
