Lubbock, Texas saw an unusual winter snow storm Friday, Feb. 27. That day should also be remembered for when one of the best photos in the history of Texas Tech University was taken.

Uploaded Friday morning to the Texas Tech Athletic Department Facebook page, the photo of Texas Tech's masked rider statue covered in snow and ice is just as awe-inspiring as usual. However, the added elements definitely lend it a more epic look -- as if the masked rider and his mount are carrying on despite the harsh winter weather.

And if you look closely, you can even see some icicles hanging down from the masked rider's hat. Like we said: epic.
