Personally, I think it should have been the bell ringer...

But ESPN chose "The Masked Rider" for tech's "Face of the Program" :sad:

I always thought they should use pictures of the kids following that lovely tceh tradition of vandalizing the endzone bleachers @ Casey Jones stadium.

Most of them are lucky to be in school - why tear it up?

Forty-eight years later, the Texas Tech Masked Rider is perhaps the most recognizable collegiate mascot in the country.
:headslap: You are not the most recognizable collegiate mascot in the country.

What is the Masked Rider most known for? Falling off his mount & allowing the horse to run into a wall & kill itself. Nice legacy!

They may just want to think about doing away with the whole Masked Rider thing. Not a lot of good fortune has shown upon it.

In 1963, the horse, Tech Beauty, was kidnapped and spray-painted with the letters "AMC" prior to Tech's football game against rival Texas A&M.[4]

In 1974, the selection of the first female Masked Rider, Ann Lynch, caused widespread controversy.

In 1975, the horse was kidnapped and received chemical burns after being painted with orange paint prior to Tech's football game against Texas.[4]

In 1982 and 1992, The Masked Rider was involved in injuring an opposing school's cheerleader and a referee, respectively.

In 1994, an accident as The Masked Rider entered the football stadium resulted in the death of the horse, Double T.

In 2001, the The Masked Rider horse trailer was involved in a car accident. The horse, Black Phantom Raider, sustained serious injuries which led to his euthanization.

I always thought black cats had short lives. If I was a black horse in Texas, I would be trying to figure out a way to leave or find that doctor that did that color change on MJ (the singer/dancer, not the BB player).

Maybe a female pirate would be more readily accepted at 'tceh'. I bet Leach doesn't have one of these in his collection yet.

That hook is really a sex toy.

I'm sure this one is rounded on the end.

I was just looking at the picture.

Never used a hook for a nose pick and certainly nothing with sharp ends. :headslap:
