MILWAUKEE – The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled Friday a limited-edition bobblehead of Gator Great and seven-time Olympic gold medalist Caeleb Dressel.
The bobblehead, which is being produced by the museum in conjunction with Dressel, marks the swimmer’s first bobblehead.
The smiling and wide-eyed Dressel bobblehead, with water up to his waist, is raising his index fingers on both hands over his head, signaling No. 1 after a gold-medal performance in the 100-meter freestyle at the Tokyo Olympics. The transparent base bears his name and each bobblehead is individually numbered to 2,020.
The bobbleheads are expected to be ready for shipping in July and are only available through the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s Online Store<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__store.bobbleheadhall.com_products_caelebdressel&d=DwIFAg&c=sJ6xIWYx-zLMB3EPkvcnVg&r=o5LKAX7slotfFMyE71jI7L22NYBIi1-KbRGNSXudTPo&m=qAGEza6h-W90bwwdOoOZnSeCAem3yROuOqSZAzEnizWQIpgUa87BnwlsP_LNR1wX&s=Vv95i5fW-5o1BDYq_NVbQyXSNdNedsnnSUmV-Z1gVEQ&e= >.
The 25-year-old Gator won gold medals in the 50 and 100 freestyle and the 100 butterfly during the Tokyo Games, becoming the first swimmer in modern Olympic Games to win gold in all three events at the same Olympics. He was also a member of the 400 freestyle and 400 medley gold-medal relays to become only the fifth American swimmer to win five gold medals in a single Olympic Games since 1970.
Dressel also holds world records in the 100 butterfly (long course and short course), 50 freestyle (short course) and 100 individual medley (short course).
A 10-time NCAA champion with the Gators from 2015-18, he also won a record seven gold medals at the 2017 World Aquatics Championships, nine medals (six gold) at the 2018 World Swimming Championships and eight medals (six gold) at the 2019 World Aquatics Championships.
