SFA TRADITIONS

 * The Axe Handle
 * Ole Cotton
 * Homecoming Bonfire
 * Purple Haze


THE AXE HANDLE

SFA 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
SFA football games.

 


OLE COTTON

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

 


THE HOMECOMING BONFIRE

SFA'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 SFA. Other events include homecoming
elections, Duck Dash, downtown parade, football games and much more.

PURPLE HAZE

Press play to hear our rowdy Purple Haze student section in action. At SFA’s
home football games, fans in the student section loudly bang their axe handles
on a metal “Purple Haze” sign to show support for our beloved Lumberjacks (and
to rattle the opposing team). Now that’s a home-field advantage!
