UT vs. University of Miami Pregame Party on Sept. 23
Please join your UT Alumni Association at a pregame party on Saturday, Sept. 23 in Miami when our Rockets take on the University of Miami Hurricanes.

All Rocket fans are welcome to join us at Hard Rock Stadium - Northeast Plaza, 347 Don Shula Dr., Miami Gardens, Fla. 33056.

The pregame party will begin two and a half hours before kickoff and will last for two hours. Game time will be announced 12 days prior to the contest. The cost for the pregame party is $45 per person.

The buffet menu will consist of:
Creamy coleslaw
Maytag blue potato salad
Creamy cheese macaroni
Grilled mojo chicken breast
Everglades BBQ pulled pork
Baked beans
Apple cobbler
Lemonade, iced tea and water
Cash bar available

President Sharon Gaber will be on hand to greet you and share the exciting things happening at UT!

You can make reservations by calling the UT Alumni Office at 800.235.6766 or by visiting www.toledoalumni.org.

The UT Alumni Association is heavily subsidizing the cost of this event. Please note that this is an NFL stadium.

Tickets for the UT vs. Miami game are available for a limited time at the UT Athletic Ticket Office. To order your tickets, please call 419.530.GOLD (4653) or visit the ticket office. Tickets are $52 for lower-level seats and $27 for upper-level seats. There is a $6 processing fee if tickets are ordered over the phone.

The Alumni Association has reserved a discounted block of rooms at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Miami Airport & Convention Center, 711 N.W. 72nd Ave., Miami, Fla. Rooms are available on Friday and Saturday evenings for $105 plus 13% tax. The hotel offers a complimentary airport shuttle 24/7, complimentary wireless internet access and a 4,000-square-foot fitness center.

Starting Sept. 8, 2017 an online code will be available to book individual reservations.

Individual reservations can be made by calling the Hotel directly at 305-261-3800, toll free at 1-888-353-1995, by faxing your reservation form at 305-260-8900 or via email at reservations@doubletreemacc.com. For special requests or to upgrade to a deluxe room or suite, which may not be in the protected block, please contact the Hotel directly for availability and pricing. A valid credit card is required to guarantee each room. Individual callers must identify their affiliation with the University of Toledo (SRP is UOT) to assure they receive the negotiated rate and group considerations. Unfortunately, rates cannot be changed at check-in or check-out for individuals who failed to identify their affiliation at the time the reservation was requested.

We hope to see you in Miami to cheer on the Rockets!

Grilled mojo chicken breast -> gator, tastes like chicken.
Everglades BBQ pulled pork -> gator, with tomato sauce.
Baked beans -> gator poop.

Hope it's a good crowd for us. Great feast for them. One of these days, I can hope.....

$45 keeps out the riff-raff. My eyes could eat $45 worth of that quality food but my digestive system no longer can. I'd still pay it if I was there. $45 is probably chump change to your retired Rocket, who they're probably aiming this at. Price is probably dictated by the caterer anyhow and I doubt they'd be getting it, if they didn't have a good rep. Be difficult to take the kids in at that price though.

Ticket and hotel price seems reasonable though, no?

Starting to look like we might have to send the swim team instead of the football team.

No kidding. I've been through a lot of bad storms, Irma seems to be the worst. Bring some hammers, nails, etc.

I'm definitely holding off my decision until they announce start time. Hopefully Irma won't be catastrophic.
