Popular Culture

UNC cheerleader Vic Huggins is credited with beginning the tradition of Ram mascots at UNC. In 1924, Huggins decided that UNC needed an animal mascot similar to N.C. State’s wolf or Georgia’s bulldog. The idea for using a ram came from the nickname for star Tar Heel fullback Jack Merritt, known as the “Battering Ram.”

Huggins ordered a live ram from Texas. They named him Rameses. He made his first appearance on the sidelines was during the UNC-VMI game on November 8, 1924, a hard-fought Carolina victory. Rameses and his descendants have been fixtures at UNC football games ever since.
