Ohio State Enhances Gameday with Tradition Evolved

Ohio State University is launching the 'Tradition Evolved' initiative to enhance the gameday experience at Ohio Stadium, blending longstanding traditions with new fan engagement. The Victory Bell will now ring before kickoff and during key third downs, with Archie Griffin inaugurating the change before the Texas opener. Fans will receive 'THE Towel' at the season opener and are encouraged to bring it to all games, with special color-themed events planned for select matchups. The marching band moves to the north end for better sound, and Block O student sections will unite for greater crowd impact. Additional features include a refreshed soundtrack with Caamp's 'Ohio,' interactive crowd moments with Buckeye leaf rewards, and expanded videoboard content. These enhancements are designed to replicate the electric atmosphere seen during Ohio State's 2024 College Football Playoff home game.
