.The Boilermaker Xtra Special was created in 1993 and was created to be a smaller version of the Boilermaker Special. It was replaced by an updated version in 1996.
The decreased size allows it to lead the football team as they charge across the field at the beginning of games. It also joins the Boilermakers at other sporting events that are inside, somewhere the Boilermaker Special could never go.
The Xtra Special was built on the chassis of an electric battery powered golf cart and can commonly be seen driving around classes during the school day.
A new Xtra Special was just announced yesterday by the Purdue Reamer Club and will be the 8th in the Special family.
