I made it to the Glass Bowl which is kind of in the middle of the University of Toledo Campus. The Glass Bowl was built in 1936 as a Works Progress Administration Project and was originally known as University Stadium. It has been renovated several times since then with the latest addition being a press box and luxury suites. The stadium looked kind of cool but not as cool as the Big House.

A view from the Press Box. First I had to pick up my press pass at the Will Call window and then I had to go up to the Press Box to get a Media Pass for my sideline access. It seemed kind of silly if you ask me. The view was kind of nice but not as nice as the view I would be getting shortly.

Down on the field where I was watching the Eagles practice for a bit. Here they are in a pump up session.

I think this is Jeremy Curry making a catch.

The Toledo Marching Band taking the field. They weren't too bad.

I kind of liked how the stadium looked in this tuba.

Some of the Toledo players running out onto the field. They had a banner that was similar to the banner at the Big House but none of the players jumped up to touch. What's the point of having a banner like that if you aren't going to touch it?

And the coin toss.
