OXFORD, Ohio - The deadline for ordering Miami's GoDaddy.com Bowl commemorative mini-helmets is Friday, Feb. 25, the Athletic Department announced today. Season ticket holders, Red & White Club members and football alumni wanting to own a "little" piece of history should call the ticket office this week to place their orders.
The helmet, which was worn for the only time in the 35-21 victory over Middle Tennessee State on Jan. 6, 2011, features a number from the helmets worn in the 1960s, the "M" worn on the helmets from the 1970s and stripes from the helmets worn in the 1980s. Miami turned back the clock that night to represent the historic opportunity to move from double-digit losses to double-digit wins in a two-year span.
Mini-helmets are available for $21.25 each, plus $10 for shipping and handling. All throwback mini helmets will use the number "11".
To order your mini-helmet, please call the Miami Athletic Ticket Office at 513-529-HAWK.
