ROCKETS ALL SEASON LONG

Upload your favorite photo of yourself, a family member, or pet showing their Toledo pride, and be a part of the pageantry at Savage Arena in a new and unique way! The cutouts will be produced and installed in partnership with Dave White Chevrolet.

 Toledo student-athletes, including COVID-19 testing, special health monitoring related to COVID-19, clean masks, and face shields. In addition, proceeds from fan cutouts provide newly necessary initiatives to support student-athlete success at Toledo, such as virtual tutoring, grab n' go meals, on-campus hand sanitization stations, and assistance with digital course books and learning resources. 


The Rocket Fan Cutouts are $40 per cutout. All cutouts will be placed in the north and south bleachers of Savage Arena.
