UPDATE

Video from the parade route shows the empty drink made a beeline for his head … but, thankfully for the senator, it clanked off his outstretched arm and didn’t appear to do any damage to the 51-year-old.

UPDATE

It’s unclear if any arrests were made over the throw, we’ve reached out to cops … but so far, no word back yet.

Ted Cruz is back in Texas, but he’s still hearing boos — the senator just got an earful of jeers from fans in Houston while he was riding in the Astros’ World Series parade.

Cruz was on a military jeep as part of the celebration for the best team in baseball … and cameras caught fans laying into him as his ride made its way through the streets.

People booed loudly … and, according to Astros reporter Ben DuBose, some even flipped the lawmaker the bird.

Of course, this is far from the first time Cruz has heard the heckling … in fact, just two weeks ago, fans at Yankee Stadium tore into him during NY’s ALCS game against the ‘Stros.

Cruz, who was reppin’ Houston with an orange shirt and a blue vest, got booed loudly, with one man even calling him a “racist piece of s***.”

Cruz appears to have gotten the last laugh on everyone, though — his beloved Astros closed out the Yankees that night, and then went on to beat the Phillies, 4-2, in the W.S. this weekend.
