The Ohio State Buckeyes will hold a special event to honor first responders during their upcoming game against the Indiana Hoosiers this Saturday, with kickoff scheduled for 12 PM at Ohio Stadium, also known as "the Shoe."

First responders will be offered a 20% discount on concessions at the game. Additionally, 20 first responders will be positioned along the north ramp as the Buckeyes take the field.

Recognition for first responders will take place throughout the game. In the first quarter, there will be a Scarlet & Gray Salute dedicated to members of the OSU Police Department, followed by acknowledgment of all first responders present in the stadium. The second quarter will highlight retiring first responders from Ohio State, and in the third quarter, Redcoats who are first responders will also be honored.
