Stadium intro video
Has anyone posted the intro video that was played at the stadium yesterday? Haven't found this anywhere yet, appologies if I've missed it posted somewhere else. I thought it was better than they have been in recent years, especially with James Earl Jones doing the voice over.
What did you guys think of it?

I loved that one.

That still gives me chills.
I kept playing it over and over before our night game against PSU last year.
This one is my favorite version: (NSFW lyrics, however)

Greatest sporting experience of my entire life. Video gives me shivers.

A very close second to Braylon-fest vs. MSU. I was at both, loved both...
One thing you have to say, and JUB did in Endzone, one thing Brandon got right was the night game.
Something about comebacks under the lights that make it amazing.

This video is amazing. I never knew it existed before today.
Thank you.

The running theme for that year was fantastic.

It did not work out, but Brady Hoke's "This is Michigan fergodsakes" at the end is perfect in this video. He had his moments.

Old Hat Creative did a great job with these...
The music sounds like it's from a Bourne movie, lol

Amazing video.
Highlighted all of the spectacular parts of this Michigan of Ours.

Well, where is the video?

I had a couple extra tickets that I made some money on a few weeks ago - but not the set I waited on. And they were sideline tickets in the 10th row! had to take a hit on them. No idea why. It looked like Stubhub had a ton available as well.

I took a major hit on my tickets. I had 'em up for sale on Stubhub since the beginning of August and just had no movement on them. I finally did get them sold last Thursday for about 1/2 off, which I'll take given that they were going to be worthless in less than 48 hours, but I was hoping that Harbaugh's home opener would have at least allowed me to get face value.

We used to use a compnay called Old Hat Creative and the videos would be available on their website. We are no longer listed as a client on their webpage. I don't know if the production has moved in house or to a different company.
My son starts at Oregon State next week. Was a great family trip - but better for Dad!

You have to scroll down. I don't know how they sorted out the logos, but the block 'M' is well past MSU's logo.

can't seem to find the correct one, what is it titled?
September 13th, 2015 at 2:53 PM ^
pretty sure th op and myself are referring to yesterday's intro video not the utl one.
September 13th, 2015 at 8:25 PM ^
I was originally responding to pdxblue, not OP.
September 13th, 2015 at 2:17 PM ^
it didn't seem quite as "Brand-y" as before, probably because they dropped "This is Michigan" which will now and forever be associated with the culture of entitlement of the Hoke era.

We tailgate and sit at the games with about 30 people. We all loved it and were talking about it at the post-game tailgate. I was surprised my son didn't recognize Darth Vader's voice though! haha! I don't think I knew he was an alum.

We sit in section 6 and we had no problems hearing it.

I missed it - couldn't get though the mass of humanity that they weren't letting through the gate fast enough. I did see at least four event staff doing absolutely nothing while we were just standing there.

"TOPLESS PICS OF OLIVIA MUNN"
*clicks on thread title"
"Anyone have any?"

who could please post the video for those of us who bring wives that make us late for everything? I never even got a sniff of said hype video before the game. I was too busy outside trying to get parked when it was being played would be my guess.

If they play it again next week, could someone at least video it with their phone?

I liked how they emphasized the University as a whole, and incorporated everything that is great about Michigan, including academics, as opposed to just the football team. They included shots of campus, Ann Arbor, famous alumni, Fab Five, Gerald Ford, world leaders visiting, etc. It was a noticeably longer video and had almost every classic Michigan Football moment incorporated. Then they had James Earl Jones say, "This is the best University in the world."
It encapsulated everything that I love about Michigan. I know this video is amazing, because it will trigger some serious Sparty inferiority complex when they visit us on the 17th. I can't wait until I get to see it again.

The video hasn't been posted on Mgoblue, so I don't think anyone has it.

I was begining to feel left out of the loop somehow.
September 13th, 2015 at 10:17 PM ^
September 13th, 2015 at 11:30 PM ^
so does this mean we are going to start acknowledging the Fab Five again?

I loved it, except for the fact that we keep trying to claim Michael Phelps. He had zero to do with the university except that we brought his coach here, he took a couple of one-off classes not in pursuit of a degree, and hung out at the Jug.
Really grasping there.
