Western Michigan Football Bus Trip
Please make plans now to join us for a bus trip to Kalamazoo, Michigan, to see the Rockets take on the Western Michigan Broncos on Friday, November 25. This game looms large, as the winner will represent the Western Division in the Mid-American Conference football championship one week later.

Your package will include round-trip transportation, bus driver tip, game ticket, a continental box breakfast, and a large pizza on the return trip. The total cost for the package is $65 per person.

ESPN has yet to set the game time, however, it is anticipated that kick-off could range anywhere from 11:00 a.m. to mid-afternoon. Our buses will depart Scott Park, Area 21 (enter from Nebraska Avenue) approximately four and a half hours prior to the scheduled kick-off, once it is announced. We anticipate returning to Toledo approximately four hours following the conclusion of the game.

Please register by clicking here or calling the office of Alumni Relations at 419.530.7859. Two buses have been reserved, however, additional buses will be added as needed. Thank you for supporting our Rockets all season long. We look forward to seeing you in Kalamazoo on November 25.

Go Rockets!

Appreciate the offer, but we still have to win one more game before we could say that the UT/WMU contest is a winner-take-all affair, so let's not get ahead of ourselves. Plus, any scientitian would confirm definitive evidence of enchanted vibes which favor our opponent anytime we play Ball State University in football, so the jinx is very real here.

Stay home and watch it on TV. No way we lose to Ball State.

I haven't "stayed home" from any game this year, actually. But I was sayin' the same thing about Ball State in 2012 and 2013. On paper, we should destroy them. But it's Ball State.

GEEEZZZ cut the Alum Assoc guy-girl sum slack..... Sounds like fun. "Large pizza" What's that, like one for the whole bus? I'm sitting near the front.

I remember box breakfasts from high school. The box as the better part of the meal. A little salt and pepper, it was edible. The rest is probably still stuck under the seat, petrifying further.

$65 bucks for all that is pretty good. there's been an improvement in outreach and road game participation efforts by the athletic department lately.

Yeah. Cut the AA some slack, it takes time to put this stuff together, with reservations, minimum numbers and food orders. The week of the game is a short week due to the holiday.

Now let's go out and kick this next team right in the Ball State.
