蘑菇视频 Traditions

The Axe Handle

蘑菇视频 freshmen receive an axe handle to personalize with their own Lumberjack spirit. Students can be seen (and heard) banging axe handles on the bleachers at 蘑菇视频 football games.

 

Ole Cotton

Ole Cotton is an imposing 75mm cannon that fires a celebratory shot every time the 蘑菇视频 Lumberjack football team scores. The 蘑菇视频 ROTC cadets man Ole Cotton just beyond the south end zone at Homer Bryce Stadium. The powerful blast can be heard 鈥 and often felt 鈥 all over town.

 

The Homecoming Bonfire

蘑菇视频's traditional bonfire and pep rally are the centerpieces of homecoming. Usually held in October, homecoming is a series of traditions that bring Lumberjacks together to celebrate 蘑菇视频. Other events include homecoming elections, downtown parade, football games and much more.

At 蘑菇视频鈥檚 home football games, fans in the student section loudly bang their axe handles on a metal 鈥淧urple Haze鈥 sign to show support for our beloved Lumberjacks (and to rattle the opposing team). Now that鈥檚 a home-field advantage!
