Texas Tech will bring its Centennial Celebration to the Bayou City in time for the annual Houston Rodeo and Livestock Show. The two-day celebration in Houston begins on Friday, March 10 at the Bayou Music Center in downtown for “Boots & Bow Ties.” Put on your best “country chic” (bow ties are optional) and join fellow Red Raiders for dinner, cocktails and a special performance by Texas Tech alum Wade Bowen and his band. Members of the Texas Tech cheer and pom squads, the Goin’ Band from Raiderland, Raider Red, and the Masked Rider will be in attendance for this special Centennial celebration.
