A video showing a young child drinking from what looks like a can of beer at a Texas football game has garnered a lot of attention online, although it isn’t clear if the can actually contained alcohol or anything at all.

The video, which has garnered tens of millions of views on social media, was apparently by another fan seated a few rows taken behind the young girl at a Texas Longhorns game in Austin.

The girl is seen holding and appearing to sip from a Michelob Ultra can, and taking multiple sips. An adult sitting next to the girl appears to be distracted.

The girl’s face is not seen on camera during the video.

While it is illegal for a person under the age of 21 to drink alcohol, according to Texas state law, there is “an affirmative defense to prosecution… that the alcoholic beverage was consumed in the visible presence of the minor’s adult parent, guardian , or spouse.”

It is not clear if any relevant authorities have been made aware of the video.
