Hokie Information
  • Virginia Tech's sports teams are known as the
    "Hokies". The word "hokie" came from the "Old
    Hokie" spirit yell created in 1896 by O.M. Stull
    for a contest to find a new school spirit yell
    when the college's name was changed.
  • "Hokie" (in its various forms) has been around at
    least since 1842. Hokie was a word that people
    would say to express great feeling, approval,
    excitement, and surprise. Hokie then,
    synonymous with words like 'hooray,' or 'yeah,'
    or 'rah.
  • The mascot is the Hokie Bird, a turkey-like
    creature. The teams were originally called the
    "Fighting Gobblers," and the turkey motif was
    kept even after the name change.
