How ' bout Them ' eers! It ' s the fourth quarter of the Virginia Tech basketball game with 3:15 left, the Mountaineers are down by six; the silent WVU fans are worried. A man dressed in buckskins and brandishing a musket ap- pears along the sidelines, and the crowd suddenly bursts into cheers, yelling en- couragement to their team. Who is that man with such a stirring effect on the crowd? None other than the Mountaineer! Ed Cokeley, a senior accounting ma- jor, enjoyed his duties as the Moun- taineer. A fan of WVU for a long time, he stated, It ' s a lot of fun. The best thing is being able to run around and get the crowd up — the enthusiasm. Whether it was Mountaineer Field or the Coliseum, Cokeley made his presence known. The fans came to life whenever they see his buckskin clad figure running through the crowd or heard him firing his musket. Besides the pride and excitement of the role, there were also frustrations. One of them was uncooperative mascots. Cokeley said that most of the opponents ' mascots would work with him in planning skits for the crowds, but there were a few who were unwilling. Another concern for the Mountaineer was being allowed to fire his gun at away games since he used real black powder. I ' m hassled by policemen who are worried about my shooting off the gun. They don ' t like it, declared Cokeley.
