COVID-19 forces Texas A&M to keep fans out of Midnight Yell Texas A&M’s five Yell Leaders ran into an almost empty Kyle Field for their Midnight Yell as Friday night crept into Saturday morningCOLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Texas A&M’s five Yell Leaders ran into an almost empty Kyle Field as Friday night crept into Saturday morning for their Midnight Yell. Texas A&M doesn’t have cheerleaders, but instead a group of five male Yell Leaders. In the first one without fans on Saturday morning, the Yell Leaders performed not only for the band, but for cameras which were livestreaming it online. The Yell Leaders worked with the university and athletics department for weeks to get clearance to hold the event without a crowd. At midnight, despite no fans being there to cheer, the five Yell Leaders bounced around energetically and smiled broadly toward the rows upon rows of empty seats.
