Will Rogers statue wrapped in black at Texas Tech

LUBBOCK, Texas (KLBK) — Early Tuesday morning, the Saddle Tramps, an all-male booster organization that supports the university’s men’s athletics, gathered on campus to wrap the Will Rogers statue in black following the deadly shooting of a Texas Tech police officer.
The Saddle Tramps said they usually wrap the statue in black following tragedies. In the past they have wrapped the statue following 9/11, the death of Spike Dykes, and the fatal homecoming crash at Oklahoma State
