Start 2015 off right: Go bowling with the Toledo Rockets! Watch UT take on the Arkansas State Red Wolves Sunday, Jan. 4, at 8 p.m. Central/9 p.m. Eastern at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile Ala.
Two more buses will motor south for the big game, thanks to the UT Alumni Association in conjunction with the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics.
Starting at 1 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 16, the specially priced bus trip package will go on sale for current UT students who are not already on a waiting list. Visit the Office of Alumni Relations in the Driscoll Alumni Center Room 2001 to make reservations.
The $25 trip includes game ticket, round-trip transportation, hotel accommodations and access to the UT Alumni Association pre-game party.
Reservations will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis. Students who wish to sit with friends on the bus and stay in the same hotel room must make their reservations together.
“Because it is exam week, if a student has a scheduled exam at 1 p.m., he or she is permitted to have a fellow student from their group secure a seat,” said Marcus Sneed, associate director of alumni relations.
“We will need your Rocket ID card, Rocket number and payment. Once the reservation has been made, the student must come to the Office of Alumni Relations on Wednesday, December 17, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. with proof of the scheduled exam. You also will need to fill out the reservation and liability waiver form at that time. If you do not come to Driscoll Alumni Center Suite 2001 during those hours, your seat will be forfeited,” he said.
The UT chartered buses will leave at Saturday, Jan. 3, at 8 p.m. from Rocket Hall and return Tuesday, Jan. 6, at approximately 2 a.m.
All UT students will be required to show their valid Rocket ID upon registration and when loading on the bus.
In addition, all students must provide a cell phone number that will be used during the trip.
The first bus trip sold out in two and a half hours last week, Sneed said.
