Across the Forty Acres, everyone knows that Texas Spirits have a ton of school pride! We were awarded the Swing Out Award for Best Spirit Group two years in a row, based on overall school spirit and a continuing dedication to the UT community.
We demonstrate our Longhorn Spirit by attending UT Athletic Events together in uniform. You are bound to see lovely ladies at these events wearing white, denim, the signature burnt orange Spirits scarf, and nametag.
That's not all! We partner up with the Tejas Club (UT male spirit/social group) to set up the flashcard section before home football games.
Spirits host a face-painting booth at the Texas Exes Tailgates at the Alumni Center.
We enjoy participating in the OU Torchlight parade and the A&M Hex Rally.
Along with UT Athletic Events, Spirits love playing Intramural Sports!
In the past we have formed Texas Spirits teams in indoor soccer, volleyball, softball, flag football, and water polo!
One of our favorite Spirit traditions is Drag Paint!
Every Sunday, Texas Spirits storm the drag to paint the windows of local businesses in order to announce a variety of upcoming UT events.
Thanks to support from local Austin businesses, we paint several windows every week! Our weenies are required to attend every drag paint and actives join in as well. We try to mix it up by having special painting days such as "ghoulfriend drag paint" or "midnight drag wars."
If you have any questions about Drag Paint, please contact our Royal Spirit Haunt: Miranda Rudy.
