Toyota is spreading finals fever right around Victoria, giving country people the rare chance to meet and farewell retiring AFL greats.
Toyota will be replicating the AFL’s Grand Final Day lap of honour around the MCG, taking the Hilux’s on tour with retired AFL superstars Jonathan Brown, Lenny Hayes, Daniel Giansiracusa, Darren Jolly and Campbell Brown.
The giant three-week lap of honour will take in 15 regional Victorian towns, giving fans the opportunity to enjoy autographs and photographs with their AFL heroes, merchandise giveaways and a handball competition.
The Toyota Retiring Legends Lap of Honour starts this Wednesday with former Brisbane Lions champion Jonathan Brown, together with former Hawthorn and Gold Coast star Campbell Brown, heading to Maryborough.
Jonathan Brown said he’s looking forward to saying goodbye to his fans. “The lap of honour around the MCG is a great tradition - with your kids in the back and a packed stadium. It’s great to be able to go beyond the MCG and reach out to country Victorians.”
