Glass Bowl

The Glass Bowl is a football stadium on the University of Toledo campus that holds about 8,000 spectators in a dual-sided grandstand structure. The facility features a three-story press box, luxury suites, and a video scoreboard that displays the action for all visitors.

The stadium was built in 1937 as part of a government jobs program and received its current name after World War II. This renaming in 1946 marked the modernization of the facility with new components.

The stadium serves as the home field for the University of Toledo Rockets football team and draws students and fans to games throughout the season. It has become a gathering place where the university community comes together to support their team.

The stadium is located on campus and offers visitors accessible seating areas and food options. When planning a visit, consider the nearby parking and check ahead for upcoming events.

An actual missile from the U.S. Army missile program has stood outside the stadium since 1961 and represents the university's connection to space technology. This landmark draws the attention of many passing visitors and serves as a distinctive marker on campus.
