Ahead of Memorial Stadium’s 100th anniversary, Illini fans now have the opportunity to immortalize their legacy in the foundation of Grange Grove with the purchase of a personalized brick that will be laid in the walkway of the popular tailgating grounds. 

Fans are given the option of two different sizes — 4 inches by 8 inches and 8 inches by 8 inches — and the inclusion of a Block-I inscription at a higher price. All purchases come with a replica brick and an official program plaque to keep.

The Memorial Stadium Brick Program is now live on its website

Proceeds will contribute to activities set to take place throughout the year-long 100th-anniversary celebration starting this upcoming football season. 

Simultaneously, season tickets for the 2024 football season were released starting at a lower-than-usual $100 to commemorate the centennial.
