The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum and FOCO have teamed up to deliver a one-of-a-kind item to Iowa Hawkeyes fans. A bobblehead featuring Herky the Hawkeye sitting atop a pink locker.
As the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame explains:
Iowa’s visiting locker room has been painted pink for newly 30 years. Legend has it that former Iowa Hawkeyes football coach Hayden Fry, who earned a Master’s degree in psychology, read that pink has a calming effect on a person. When he started coaching at Iowa in 1979, he had the walls in the visiting locker room painted pink, and the toilets and lockers were painted pink during updates to Kinnick Stadium in 2005.
