The University of Toledo Rockets men's basketball team plans a special tribute for the game against Buffalo on Saturday, Feb. 4.

With the coaching staff and more than 250 faculty members, staff and students wearing bow ties, the "Tie One On" event is set to raise money and awareness for UT's Dana Cancer Center and prostate cancer care.

A $100 donation gets participants a UT Rockets bow tie, a ticket to the game, a commemorative photo and the chance to take part in a post-game reception.

On Thursday's edition of WNWO TodayChina Sellers used an instructional YouTube video to teach Michael Henrich how to tie a bow tie - with mixed results! (Video above.)

Don't worry if you can't tie a bow tie, though. UT will have people standing by at Savage Arena who tie it for you. Tipoff is 7 p.m.

Register to donate and get your bow tie and ticket at this University of Toledo website.
