Mich vs UConn, viewing party at my house in San Diego
Okay folks, I got the green light from my awesome GF, she's from Iowa and a big M fan because of me! Anyway, anyone in this area who wants to visit for the game here is my email:
Indicate your screen name when messaging please.
Please RSVP me by tmrw evening 8pm our time, I'm thinking BYOB and maybe we can all chip in for pizza or we can BBQ before the game on my deck, I have a TV for outside too.
Please let me know everyone, need to organize last minute and all, it would be so cool to meet some of you.

OB is the best.

I thought that San Diego was getting the Texas KState game...is it possible that we might be able to watch Michigan instead?
I'm up in Vista/Oceanside, but I hope you have a great get together to watch the game.

That's what I thought.
I can't believe that the programming types figure SoCal has any interest in Texas or KState. If it's not one of the PAC schools (specifically USC, UCLA, or Oregon), few teams rival Michigan as far as a San Diego fan-base presence (ok...maybe the Buckeyes and Seminoles have some fans out here too). Thinking back I can't think I've ever run into Longhorn fans...even at the zoo, Disneyland, or one of the other tourist-heavy spots.

ABC in NYC because I'm grandfathered in with DTV
September 19th, 2013 at 10:20 PM ^
OK...you sufficiently assuaged my fears that I expressed in my earlier post. You're cool. Have fun partying in SD!
September 20th, 2013 at 1:00 AM ^
i read that as a sausage my fears. sausage is delicious.

thread. Mick, I hope you get 50 dudes and they eat all of your bean dip.

I figure some are just joking and some wanna be wise asses.
It's almost making me say fucki it, but I'll honor my word, already spoke to a couple of cool guys and I should know by tmrw, you can bring a spouse, friend or whatever, as long as they're M fans.
September 19th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
if I wasn't 3000 miles away.
September 20th, 2013 at 5:15 AM ^
Me too, if it weren't for 6013.1 miles.
September 19th, 2013 at 9:46 PM ^
As long as they're Michigan fans and they taste good grilled, right?
No, I'm kidding, San Diego Mick. I also think this is a very nice gesture.
September 19th, 2013 at 9:47 PM ^
I agree, props to you Mick for hosting people, nice of you to offer. Of course we've reached the age where everything is turned into a joke so that they can receive the props of their internet comrades and everyone is a stand up comedian. I blame reddit.
September 19th, 2013 at 10:00 PM ^
Can we watch Anchorman before and after the game?
September 19th, 2013 at 10:08 PM ^
September 19th, 2013 at 10:33 PM ^
September 19th, 2013 at 10:48 PM ^
How generous Mick. If I lived in San Diego I would surely attend. Let us know how it goes.
September 19th, 2013 at 10:57 PM ^

The Blue Light Cafe in SF might be showing the Michigan game, i've gone there quite a few times to watch games, I think they get all the packages and a good Michigan crowd every time.
September 19th, 2013 at 11:23 PM ^
Wait a minute. San Diego. . . Mick. . .you're Phil Mickelson aren't you?
September 20th, 2013 at 12:31 AM ^

He should move to Scotland.

September 20th, 2013 at 3:18 AM ^
I guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow.
September 20th, 2013 at 9:00 AM ^
You will have to let me know how it goes so I can live vicariously through you. Colimas was my second favorite, maybe soley because of their avocado salsa.
September 19th, 2013 at 11:59 PM ^
September 20th, 2013 at 12:07 AM ^
very kind of you to say so, I felt bad for people not being able to watch and it pissed me off about the gameplan money grab from espn.
September 20th, 2013 at 12:49 AM ^
September 20th, 2013 at 1:33 AM ^
Hey Mick, that's very nice of you to offer. I'm actually in the La Jolla/UTC area, so not far from you, but I'm going to be out of town this weekend, otherwise I'd join you all. Very cool of you to host. It would be fun to meet some fellow MGoBloggers in San Diego. Anyway, enjoy the game this weekend. Go BLUE.
September 20th, 2013 at 2:27 AM ^
Nice to be appreciated, wish you could make it as well, oh well. Make a note of my email and drop me a note sometime and we can create an mgoblog family out here, you gotta be cool folks, you're an M fan , afterall.
September 20th, 2013 at 11:10 AM ^
I'm in the same boat, I won't be around this weekend but fully appreciate the gesture. I'm sure it'll be a great time. Thanks for the offer!
September 20th, 2013 at 1:50 AM ^
Reddit isn't showing the game in its televised contests sidebar!
September 20th, 2013 at 3:02 AM ^
dude, you are the boss. hope you all have a good time.
don't let those who insist on making mediocre jokes ruin this kind offer.
September 20th, 2013 at 4:11 AM ^
September 20th, 2013 at 7:34 AM ^
September 20th, 2013 at 8:10 AM ^
Great offer! You're a great American, Mick.
However as my screen name insinuates.. frowny face.
September 20th, 2013 at 8:29 AM ^
Cheers and Go Blue!
September 20th, 2013 at 10:47 AM ^
I think we all know around here about the "pics or it didn't happen" rule. A mere report won't cut it.
September 20th, 2013 at 10:57 AM ^
September 20th, 2013 at 2:27 PM ^
Looks like we'll have about 10-12 people here, pizza is the thing and M football is the game!
September 20th, 2013 at 8:33 AM ^
September 20th, 2013 at 9:28 AM ^
Plane tickets booked, on my way!
September 20th, 2013 at 9:30 AM ^
I got some beers - let's drink'em!
September 20th, 2013 at 12:55 PM ^
Wow, a lot of San Diego MGoBloggers. We should pick a bar and turn this into a weekly thing...
