The Traditions
The crown jewel is 'Enter Sandman' โ€” when Metallica's iconic riff drops, the entire stadium jumps in unison, creating a seismic event that registers on nearby instruments.
๐ŸŽบ
Pregame Rituals
The Hokie Bird mascot works the crowd relentlessly, and the Corps of Cadets cannon fires after every Virginia Tech score. 'Stick It In' is the chant you'll hear echoing from the student section on third downs, and the 'Hokie Pokie' dance keeps spirits high during breaks.
๐Ÿ“ฃ
In-Game Moments
Don't miss the team's Hokie Walk into the stadium roughly two hours before kickoff โ€” fans line the path to cheer the players in.

PRO TIP
Position yourself near the South End Zone tunnel about 20 minutes before kickoff to feel the full force of 'Enter Sandman' up close.
