Part of the Purdue scene since 1940, the Boilermaker
Special claims to be the world's largest mascot. Weighing in at 10,800
pounds, the 24-foot vehicle is fashioned to look like an old-time locomotive.
It is maintained by the Reamer Club.
The current model, Boilermaker Special V, was built by
Wabash National Corp. in Lafayette and unveiled at Purdue's football game
with Notre Dame on Sept. 25, 1993. The task force that redesigned the
mascot consisted of Purdue alumni, local and national business leaders
and students in the Reamer Club.
Efforts to create the first Special began in 1939 with
a letter to the editor of the Purdue student newspaper. The first Special,
built with funds raised by the Reamer Club, operated until 1953. The second
Special was created in mid-1953, the third one was dedicated in October
1960 and the fourth one is the Boilermaker X-tra Special, a toned-down
version that was christened in 1979.
As a representative of the university wherever it travels,
the Boilermaker Special stands as that tradition of Purdue which is most
familiar to alumni and fans alike. It is a mascot which symbolizes Purdue's
invincibility, immortality and ingenuity.
Boilermaker X-tra Special
The Boilermaker X-tra Special is a toned-down version of the Boilermaker
Special and leads the football team onto the Ross-Ade Stadium field. It
is the first remake of the mini-mascot and is the responsibility of the
Reamer Club. The current X-tra Special was unveiled at Purdue's homecoming
game with Ohio State on Oct. 19, 1996.
Purdue Pete
Purdue Pete begins the 2002-02 season with another busy schedule ahead.
The students who portray the costumed personification of a Boilermaker
make approximately 275 appearances combined each year. They appear at
all home and away football games, home volleyball matches, home men's
and women's basketball games and post-season events. Pete also stops in
on Olympic sport events and makes his rounds to alumni and university
functions, local school fundraisers, visits hospitals and has had several
appearances at weddings!
