Illinois students - who receive free admission simply by showing their student ID - are encouraged to enter for the scooter giveaway as they enter Huff Hall on Friday. Then, one lucky student's name will be drawn by a former Illini wrestling star during the break between the first and second halves of the dual.
Also during the intermission, marketing representatives will throw a number of Illinois wrestling t-shirts into the crowd, with two special shirts entitling their owners the right to a special prize. Those two fans will don blindfolds and $100 will be spread out on the main mat, with one $50 bill and 50 $1 bills. The fans will then have 30 seconds to collect as much cash as possible.
Friday's match will be broadcast on a tape-delayed basis by the Big Ten Network, with the dual being televised at 9:30 p.m. CT. Tickets are $5 for adults, $2 for youth 18 and under and UI students gain free admission by showing their student ID.
