MSC halftime speech video
Certainly sounds like she was hitting the sauce early before the game
edit: thought i did the embed right but i guess not. here's the link:

It was obvious when it happened but seeing it again, I'm just, like, wow man. I hope this was the nadir of the program. I can't fathom sinking any deeper.
November 10th, 2013 at 9:55 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:55 PM ^
I doubt any halftime performance we do can top that. Michigan wins.
November 11th, 2013 at 12:48 AM ^
That was funny
November 10th, 2013 at 9:56 PM ^
Maybe AJ Williams drove her to the game. Too soon?

I just read your comment with the voice of Abe Froman. Very appropos Sausage King

This is actually pretty worrisome. Isn't it more likely that she was having some kind of neurological issue? She's never been known to have problems with substance abuse. She's been president for over ten years now, so if she had a penchant for getting hammered on the job, there would have been other incidents by now.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:14 PM ^
Well, either she has a medical condition or she was on something... Long, slurred words. Very strange behavior.
November 10th, 2013 at 11:36 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:13 PM ^
I think a lot of it may have had to do with her hearing herself on the stadium PA while she was speaking. That can mess up a speech pattern.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:18 PM ^
Except she speaks at the commencement ceremony that is held at the stadium every year.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
Exactly. Very hard to buy this explanation when this is a woman who made a career out of public speaking and speaks at this exact venue annually.
I can't wait to see how liquored up she gets for the MSU commencement address.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:26 PM ^
That's it!! She was just practicing! She wants to get it perfect.
After her speech, she's going down to Cedar Village to set some couches on fire with the bros.
November 10th, 2013 at 11:04 PM ^
"Sixty minutes of inebriated speechmaking; that's what we try to do. We're just glad we don't get caught every halftime."
Seriously; who gave her the mic under these circumstances? They could have just waved at the crowd, and avoided this colossal embarassment.
November 11th, 2013 at 10:55 AM ^
The funny thing is, is that if Dave Brandon had noticed her condition, kept the mic, and given a generic "Thank you Mary-Sue" speech, I guarantee some people on this board would bitch about how he's "hogging the spotlight, and making it all about himself"
November 10th, 2013 at 10:22 PM ^
Drunk in public?
November 10th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
Surely it's got to be something like that.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:23 PM ^
you're drunk
November 10th, 2013 at 10:26 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:28 PM ^
Drunk as shit.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:30 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:31 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:32 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:35 PM ^
This could be the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen. Just amazing.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:55 PM ^
And as she was wobbling off the field (nobody was helping her, exactly, although it looked like about four different people were expecting to catch her) she was sort of dancing. It was weird. Looked like a drunk sorority girl wearing her boyfriend's letter jacket; it was about four sizes too big.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:52 PM ^
Man I saw the thread earlier about this, but holy shit. If there was no medical condition involved and just alcohol, I am pretty sure MSC probably doesn't remember halftime at all. That is beyond tanked speech patterns.
For comparision purposes commencement speech by MSC
November 10th, 2013 at 10:50 PM ^
kids, see this video and remember, you could look like an idiot in front of 112.204 people too someday. don't do it!
November 10th, 2013 at 11:06 PM ^
Thanks internet.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:51 PM ^
Because I cringe too much when things get really awkward. This is why I have trouble getting through episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm, even though I love the show.
Drunk as a skunk.
November 11th, 2013 at 12:21 AM ^
November 11th, 2013 at 1:04 AM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 10:55 PM ^
She does not have a neurological issue nor did she have a stroke.. the university JUST put out a video of her this week as she advertised the University's newest fundraising campaign launch.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?
If you watch this.. you can CLEARLY see that she is perfectly normal.. when sober.
November 10th, 2013 at 10:59 PM ^
That very fundraising campaign that you mentioned may have been the origin of this episode. There was a big private party for major donors inside Crisler on Saturday morning. I, uh, wasn't invited; I expect that maybe there was an open bar.
November 10th, 2013 at 11:24 PM ^
November 11th, 2013 at 8:13 AM ^
Congratulations! you just won $68! that's one hell of a return on investment.
November 11th, 2013 at 12:02 PM ^
and MSC wasn't there anyway. But I've seen her at several of these events, some of which do have open bars, and one of which was on NYE, and I've never even seen her have one drink. Sadly I think a stroke is a more likely explanation than drunkenness.
November 10th, 2013 at 11:15 PM ^
The Drink The Drink The Drink
November 11th, 2013 at 12:15 AM ^
can we give away this evening??
November 10th, 2013 at 11:26 PM ^
Leaders and best...
November 10th, 2013 at 11:32 PM ^
I hope Brady Hoke does fire me ( and then threw up on the 50 yard line)...
November 10th, 2013 at 11:44 PM ^
-Something confusing her acoustically? Health issue?
-No one told her ahead of time? If so, way to throw someone under the bus.
November 10th, 2013 at 11:50 PM ^
November 10th, 2013 at 11:54 PM ^
November 11th, 2013 at 12:06 AM ^
I'm not even made. I'm impressed.
November 11th, 2013 at 12:17 AM ^
