The roadies are the road crew who set up and tear down the stage at the Texas Stadium. They're a group of cantankerous men who have no time for people who are in their way, even the heroic Bravo Squad. They scuffle with Bravo right after the halftime show, and as Bravo heads for their limo after the game, the roadies attack with crowbars and pipes.
