Rowdie Run-
During a second half time-out around the
8-minute
mark, one pre-selected Rowdies member jumps out
of the stands and onto the court while the Rocky
theme song is played by the UR Pep Band.
The
student then takes off his shirt and waves it in
the air
to an excited UR crowd. He climbs up into the
stands
on the side opposite that of the Rowdies and
climbs
the stairs, until stopping near the top. He
then spells
out Richmond with his body, one letter at a
time,
R-I-C-H-M-O-N-D, and the crowd shouts each
letter
in correspondence. After going through each
letter
the individual pumps his fist in the air three
times, as
the crowd says "Richmond Richmond Richmond."
Rowdies T-shirt-
Each member of the Rowdies receives a Rowdies
t-shirt to create a sea of red at the Robins
Center.
With each new athletics season, a new Rowdies
t-shirt is designed. A new logo is created for
the
front of the t-shirt and a new slogan is formed
for
the back of the t-shirt.
