Happy Birthday Denard
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:06 PM ^
the only thing memorable about my 21st is that I don't remember it
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:08 PM ^
Let us all pray you did not spend your first night as a 21-yr old the same way all of us did.
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:11 PM ^
I went to Charley's: CLOSED!
BTB Cantina: CLOSED!
All those bars on South U: CLOSED!
Ricks: OPEN!!!! With 8 other people in it.
Lamest 21st ever, that's what I get for a birthday over Christmas break.
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:44 PM ^
The Pretzel Bell was a tradition when I was at Michigan. It had been there for more than 50 years and everyone thought it would last forever. I don't know exactly when it closed, but I do know it's been a long time gone. What a great place, with all the Michigan memorabilia on the walls!
September 22nd, 2011 at 10:43 PM ^
...the Pretzel Bell...the Castors...closed in the '80s.
Institution before my time, but knew its lore. I think there is a plaque/cornerstone of some sort on the building recognizing its history.

In 1981, the thing to do at 21 was "ring the Bell" at the Village Bell on South U. That was 21 of whatever drinks your friends put in front of you that night. Sorry the V-Bell is gone. Not sorry Denard won't be able to ring his bell there. (What idiots we were...)
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:11 PM ^
No drinking during the season!
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:12 PM ^
As for my 21st, let's just say that something happened that caused a rift between me and a lifelong friend, so much so that we still haven't spoken to one another since that day 4 years ago. Hopefully Denard's doesn't end with a shower and a change of clothes like mine did.
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:17 PM ^
You can't go there and just be all generic.
Was there a real tiger locked in the bathroom the next morning? Was there a naked asian guy trapped in the trunk of your car?
You gotta tell us details now...
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:43 PM ^
Seriously... it gets the mind wandering wondering what might have happened...
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:49 PM ^
$5 it's female related. We're all waiting with baited breath...
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:54 PM ^
Its gotta be about a girl. And if it is, I strongly suggest that the OP remain silent because no good will come from revealing that secret (unless a girl is reading it and its an extremely romantic and chivalrous story about how he saved this girl from a horrible relationship).
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:57 PM ^
You're all a bunch of vultures. Anyway, long story short, I took about 5 shots too many of Captain, blacked out, and woke up the next morning on the floor covered in was later to be revealed as yesterday's dinner.
With no memory of what happened, my roommate informed me that I had been chill all night until all of a sudden, while talking to aforementioned friend, I puked (for lack of a better word...if there even is one) all over her, from head to toe. She had to take a shower and borrow clothes from someone while I was hauled upstairs so as not to do further damage. As I said earlier, that friend and I haven't spoken since.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:02 PM ^
Not what I was thinking at all.
You really baited us with the shower, Captain and change of clothes there sir.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:32 PM ^
who can't be covered head to toe with your vomit on your 21st birthday and laugh about it really wasn't your friend anyway
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:33 PM ^
Also, that seems like a pretty silly reason not to talk to a friend for years.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:57 PM ^
at vomiting on me when it comes to friendship
September 22nd, 2011 at 7:55 PM ^
by the way, it is "bated," unless you were actually eating sushi. OIC - with your screen name, "baited" still works.
September 23rd, 2011 at 5:57 PM ^
I thank you for correcting me - srsly. I did not know that.
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:13 PM ^
I would buy you this gift if it existed and the NCAA did not
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:19 PM ^
JHC don't let Lahey get a hold of Shoelace! At least until he graduates.

BTW, Happy Birthday Shoelace!
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:18 PM ^
September 22nd, 2011 at 6:12 PM ^
Why don't you just frig off Mr. Lahey? Ya drunk bastard
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:15 PM ^
This is my gift to you Shoelace! This is the ONLY way you can tie your shoes, Rocket Style!
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:35 PM ^
Good luck this weekend!
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:37 PM ^
Happy Birthday Predator! You are a humble beast. Please don't do anything stupid because it's your 21st Birthday. That shit gets old quick. You shouldn't even have to leave your house/apt/dorm and still get whatever you want on this day. Kick some ass this weekend buddy.
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:42 PM ^
Happy Birthday and plz be safe Denard
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:49 PM ^
which started and ended at Rick's in a blur. For our team preparation, I hope his did not include Rick's.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:15 PM ^
All I want for Denard's birthday is a W.
Go Blue!
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:16 PM ^
I am of the legion that celebrated his 21st birthday at Charlie's. Please, don't do this.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:21 PM ^
The following morning. That night I had a beer with my roomates and then I had to study, so that sucked.
I made up for it hardcore that weekend though at my buddy's wedding in Colorado. The thin air makes 3 beers feel like 6 when you're not used to it.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:32 PM ^
I took a quantum physics exam at 8:30am the day after my 21st, seriously. Therefore, I studied on my 21st b-day.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:33 PM ^
since denard travels at the speed of light, does time even have an effect on him, and, if not, does he even have a birthday?
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:36 PM ^
Take it easy out there tonight.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:56 PM ^
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:15 PM ^
Happy birthday #16, may your speed and awesomness continue on. Sorry we didn't get a card out in time, I've been busy reading Mgoblog and forgot to tell my wife to send a card. My kids would have drawn pictues on it, you would have have loved it and it would have made you smile instead of you making us smile.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DENARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My 21st I ended up splitting a fifth of jäger with another person with very little redbull in less than an hour. Horrible horrible night.
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:33 PM ^
Happy Birthday Denard! If the NCAA would allow it I'd have my wife in the kitchen baking you a huge cake!
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:42 PM ^
Happy B-Day Denard!
Something for after your football career.
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:43 PM ^
Happy Birthday, Denard!
It seems only fitting that he was born on a college football Saturday. We beat UCLA 38-15 the day Denard was born.
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:43 PM ^
Happy Birthday, Dearest QB!
Go Blue! Stay dry........er than some of us did. No, seriously, stay dry for Saturday.
September 22nd, 2011 at 5:01 PM ^
I drank a lot of Bass Ale and smoked about a zillion Winstons at Ashley's with one or two pals. It could have been better, but it could have been a lot worse.
Happy 21st, Senor Dilithium!
September 22nd, 2011 at 5:07 PM ^
of an apartment building, almost got arrested in a 7-11 and woke up to a room full of people who thought that I had died about 5 hours earlier.
Happy Birthday, Denard!! Know that you are loved by many. Not just for what you do on the field, but because of the type of man that you are.
September 22nd, 2011 at 5:31 PM ^
I was on a boat folating around somewhere in the pacific ocean picking off lots of Albacore tuna.
September 22nd, 2011 at 6:40 PM ^
I did not even realize it was my 21st bday! I partied a lot later that year after landing my first big full time job! It was fun being young and finally having some money to do shit!
Happy Birthday DROB! I hope you have a big game on Saturday.
September 22nd, 2011 at 7:10 PM ^
As my mom's birthday! Happy birthday!
September 22nd, 2011 at 7:47 PM ^
Last thing I remember about my 21st was passing out on a South U trashcan in front of Panchero's. First thing I remember when i woke up was sitting in my toilet, naked, covered in shit and vomit. Later that night I got laid, so it wasn't all bad.

Been bowling with him before, he doesn't tie his shoes.
<br>He's also pretty awful at bowling, fwiw.
