The tradition began in 1936, when "ghost riders" were dared to circle the field prior to home football games. The Masked Rider became an official mascot in 1954, when Joe Kirk Fulton led the team onto the field at the <a href="/wiki/Gator_Bowl" title="Gator Bowl">Gator Bowl</a>. According to reports from those at the game, the crowd sat in stunned silence as they watched Fulton and his horse Blackie rush onto the football field, followed by the team. After a few moments, the silent crowd burst into cheers. Ed Danforth, a writer for the <a href="/wiki/Atlanta_Journal" class="mw-redirect" title="Atlanta Journal">Atlanta Journal</a> who witnessed the event, later wrote, "No team in any bowl game ever made a more sensational entrance."<a href="#cite_note-Mascots_unmasked:_A_lasting_tradition_for_Texas_Tech_began_at_1954_Gator_Bowl-189">[185]</a><a href="#cite_note-History_of_Masked_Rider:_A_history_of_one_of_Texas_Tech's_Oldest_and_Best-Loved_Traditions-190">[186]</a> In 2000, The Masked Rider tradition was commemorated with the unveiling of a statue outside of the university's Frazier Alumni Pavilion. The sculpture, created by artist Grant Speed, is 25% larger than life.<a href="#cite_note-Rider_stands_larger_than_life:_A_new_statue_dedicated_to_the_history_of_the_Masked_Rider_finds_its_home-191">[187]</a> Today, the Masked Rider, with <a href="/wiki/Guns_up" class="mw-redirect" title="Guns up">guns up</a>, leads the team onto the field for all home games. This mascot, adorned in a distinctive <a href="/wiki/Gaucho" title="Gaucho">gaucho</a> hat like those worn by members of the marching band, is one of the most visible figures at Texas Tech. Texas Tech's other mascot, <a href="/wiki/Raider_Red" title="Raider Red">Raider Red</a>, is a more recent creation. Beginning with the 1971 football season, the Southwest Conference forbade the inclusion of live animal mascots to away games unless the host school consented. For situations where the host school did not want to allow the Masked Rider's horse, an alternative mascot was needed. Jim Gaspard, a member of the <a href="/wiki/Texas_Tech_University_traditions#Spirit_organizations" title="Texas Tech University traditions">Saddle Tramps</a> student spirit organization, created the original design for the Raider Red costume, basing it on a character created by cartoonist <a href="/wiki/Dirk_West" title="Dirk West">Dirk West</a>, a Texas Tech alumnus and former Lubbock mayor.<a href="#cite_note-Dirk_West:_Before_the_mustache,_guns-192">[188]</a> Although the Masked Rider's identity is public knowledge, it has always been tradition that Raider Red's student alter ego is kept secret until the end of his or her tenure.<a href="#cite_note-Raider_Red-193">[189]</a> The student serving as Raider Red is a member of the Saddle Tramps or High Riders. <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Traditions">Traditions</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Texas_Tech_University&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Traditions">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Texas_Tech_University_traditions" title="Texas Tech University traditions">Texas Tech University traditions</a></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Carol_of_Lights">Carol of Lights</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Texas_Tech_University&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: Carol of Lights">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:TTUlights.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/47/TTUlights.jpg/220px-TTUlights.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="138" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/47/TTUlights.jpg/330px-TTUlights.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/47/TTUlights.jpg/440px-TTUlights.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1008" data-file-height="630" /></a><figcaption>Carol of Lights</figcaption></figure> The Carol of Lights is an annual event, sponsored by the Residence Halls Association, traditionally held the first Friday in December, to celebrate the holiday season.

The Texas Tech Trombone Choir and combined choirs lead the crowd in singing carols and the illumination ceremony culminates with a soloist performance of "O Holy Night" in the Science Quadrangle. This is followed by the lighting ceremony, where 13 buildings within the <a href="/wiki/Texas_Technological_College_Historic_District" title="Texas Technological College Historic District">Texas Technological College Historic District</a> are illuminated with the over 25,000 red, white, and orange lights.<a href="#cite_note-Carol_of_Lights-194">[190]</a> The lights remain on the campus buildings until the first week when students come back from the holiday break.<a href="#cite_note-ttu_1-195">[191]</a> In 1959, Texas Tech University Board of Directors member Harold Hinn planned and provided the funding to cover the Science Quadrangle and Administration Building with 5,000 lights. However, students were away on Christmas break and did not see the display. The following year, the Residence Hall Association sponsored the event under the name "Christmas Sing". In 1961, the event was renamed Carol of Lights and the display increased to 16,000 lights.<a href="#cite_note-Carol_of_Lights9-196">[192]</a> The tradition has since grown to include decorations like the 38-foot lighted Christmas tree, 3,000 luminaries lining the sidewalks of Memorial Circle, and a 21-foot fresh pine wreath hung on the Physics/Geosciences building built by Women's Service Organization.<a href="#cite_note-ttu_1-195">[191]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Double_T">Double T</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Texas_Tech_University&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Double T">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Double_T" title="Double T">Double T</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg/170px-Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg.png" decoding="async" width="170" height="199" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg/255px-Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg/340px-Texas_Tech_Athletics_logo.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="252" data-file-height="295" /></a><figcaption>Double T</figcaption></figure> The most readily identified symbol of Texas Tech is the Double T.

However, that position would cause Soapsuds' posterior end to face due east, a dubious greeting to visitors entering by the main eastern campus entrance where the statue is placed. The horse's rear would also be facing downtown Lubbock, potentially insulting the Lubbock business community. The legend holds that this problem was solved by Tech's Civil Engineering department, who calculated that a 23° turn of Soapsuds' head to the north would line up Soapsuds' rear end directly toward <a href="/wiki/College_Station,_Texas" title="College Station, Texas">College Station, Texas</a>, home of the rival <a href="/wiki/Texas_A%26M_Aggies" title="Texas A&M Aggies">Texas A&M Aggies</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Rogers-202">[198]</a><a href="#cite_note-Ten_things_you_didn't_know_about_Texas_Tech-203">[199]</a> Modern surveys and satellite imagery have determined the statue's posterior end actually points roughly equidistantly between College Station and Austin, home of another rival team, the <a href="/wiki/Texas_Longhorns" title="Texas Longhorns">Texas Longhorns</a>.<a href="#cite_note-LubbockAvalanceJournal-204">[200]</a><a href="#cite_note-SoapsudsMythraiders-205">[201]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Texas_Tech_ring">Texas Tech ring</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Texas_Tech_University&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: Texas Tech ring">edit</a>]</div> While the <a href="/wiki/Class_ring" title="Class ring">class ring</a> had occasionally used a universal design, by the late 20th century, various styles were available.

By tradition, undergraduates wear the ring with the Double T logo facing themselves. Upon graduation, the ring is turned so the logo faces outward. One shoulder of the ring displays an image of the <a href="/wiki/Administration_Building_(Texas_Tech_University)" title="Administration Building (Texas Tech University)">Administration Building</a>, with the bells which represent victory.
