The Texas Tech Red Raiders mascot is the Masked Rider. It is very old and its original name was the Ghost Rider. It got its official status after the 1954 Gator Bowl game (a college bowl game, which is held every year at the ALTEL Stadium in Jacksonville).

Several other teams also liked an interesting idea and stole it, and now use the same mascot.
