The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame Museum has unveiled a series of limited edition bobbleheads commemorating the Milan High School’s 1954 Boys Basketball State Championship. All 12 players from that 1954 team are included, the roster includes bobbles of Ray Craft, Bill Jordan, Gene White, Bobby Plump, Bob Wichman, Ron Truitt, Glen Butts, Bob Engel, Rollin Cutter, Roger Schroder, Kenny Wendelman, and Kenny Delap. These bobbleheads are individually numbered to just 500 and can be purchased at the Hall of Fame Museum Store or at the Milan 54 Hoosiers Museum  for $25 each or $250 for the full set.

The Milan Miracle is coming up on its 65th anniversary and was featured in the movie Hoosiers starring Gene Hackman. Co-Founder and CEO of The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, Phil Sklar sums it up best, “These bobbleheads are the perfect way for fans to commemorate Milan High school State Championship, one of the greatest sports stories in Indiana and sports history.”
