Iowa and Iowa State Basketball Dancing in March Bobbleheads unveiled
To celebrate the Iowa Hawkeyes and Iowa State Cyclones runs to the Sweet 16, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled officially licensed Iowa Hawkeyes and Iowa State Cyclones Basketball Dancing in March Bobbleheads. On Saturday, Iowa’s Women’s team will face Colorado in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. The officially licensed bobbleheads are being produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, an official licensee of Iowa and Iowa State.
The bobbleheads are now available in the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s Online Store at this link for Iowa and this link for Iowa State. The bobbleheads, which are expected to ship in September, are $40 each plus a flat-rate shipping charge of $8 per order. Each bobblehead will be individually numbered to 2,024.
Standing on a basketball court base with each school’s colors, the bobbleheads feature Iowa State’s mascot, Cy the Cardinal, and Iowa’s mascot, Herky the Hawk, dancing and wearing a basketball jersey. The backing behind the bobblehead features a basketball texture with “MARCH” across the top, a bracket, and each school’s logo.
Iowa will take on the 5th-seeded Colorado Buffaloes in the Sweet 16 on Saturday in Albany, New York. The 1st-seeded Hawkeyes knocked off 16th-seeded Holy Cross in the First Round and the 8th-seeded West Virginia Mountaineers in the Second Round to keep dancing and advance to the Sweet 16.
Iowa State will take on the 3rd-seeded Illinois Fighting Illini in the Sweet 16 on Thursday in Boston, Massachusetts.
