The Texas Rangers baseball team has unveiled a new permanent statue at Globe Life Field, featuring the iconic 'One Riot, One Ranger' design. The 12-foot bronze statue, created by Texas artist Waldine Amanda Tauch, was previously displayed at Dallas Love Field airport for nearly six decades before being donated to the Rangers. The statue honors the history and legacy of the Texas Rangers law enforcement agency, whose name inspired the baseball team's own identity.
Why it matters
The 'One Riot, One Ranger' statue is a beloved symbol in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, representing the storied history and reputation of the Texas Rangers law enforcement organization. By permanently displaying the statue at their ballpark, the Rangers baseball team is embracing its origins and paying tribute to the public safety professionals who have served the state of Texas.
The details
The new statue was unveiled on Monday, March 2, 2026, with Rangers officials, Texas Rangers law enforcement representatives, and City of Dallas officials in attendance. The statue, which stands 12 feet tall, was originally donated to the City of Dallas in 1961 and had been displayed at Dallas Love Field airport until its recent relocation to Globe Life Field. The statue becomes the seventh permanent statue addition to the Rangers' ballpark, joining statues honoring Nolan Ryan, Tom Vandergriff, the team's 2010 World Series appearance, Rangers fans, Iván Rodríguez, and Adrian Beltré.
