Keep Lane Stadium the Home of the Fighting Gobblers

Lane Stadium at Virginia Tech is currently undergoing renovations to improve and expand its seating capacity. It has come to our attention that the current plan of action includes removing the words 'Home of the Fighting Gobblers' from the outside of the stadium.

While some may view these words as silly or kitschy, they are nevertheless part of the Virginia Tech tradition. Many, many students and guests have looked up and smiled at these words while entering the stadium over the years. These words reflect not only the tenacity and fighting spirit of the Virginia Tech football team, but also the sense of humor and good nature of fans whose team mascot is a giant turkey.

We ask that those responsible at Virginia Tech leave this tradition intact and return the words 'Home of the Fighting Gobblers' to their rightful place after the renovations have been completed.
