Oregon State Traditions

The Traditions

Every Oregon State fan knows the 'War Hymn,' played by the marching band after every Beaver score — join in the arm-waving celebration even as a visitor. The chainsaw sound effect blasts through the speakers on key defensive moments, revving up the crowd.

Pregame Rituals

Watch for Benny the Beaver's entertaining antics on the sideline and his pushups after touchdowns. The annual Civil War rivalry game against Oregon (now called the 'Rivalry Game') is the emotional peak of every season.

In-Game Moments

Before kickoff, the Beaver Walk brings players through crowds of fans near the Truax Indoor Center.
