Except I live in central Florida, so you'd have really made a wrong turn looking for Big House parking.
I'll be there. I think it'll only get cancelled if there is a thunderstorm.
right according to schedule. 60% chance of thunder each and every hour of match. 30 minute delay after each strike.

It's pouring, thunder is booming, lightning streaking across the sky. We've been looking for rain for over a month now, but why does it have to come today?!!
Open wide for some soccer!
Maybe we'll just end up tailgating and drinking all day when/if it gets cancelled

HA Adidas
Is the stadium even big enough for a soccer field? I thought they were different dimensions.

The only college football stadiums that had enough room for a FIFA soccer pitch were Stanford and the Rose Bowl. That's because of those stadiums at one point had an athletic track around. The Rose Bowl was a track cycling venue for the 1932 Olympics.

Not sure if the link is going to work, but from a 1990 issue of the Michigan Alumnus, discussing the 1994 World Cup committee coming to Ann Arbor to scout locations:

Pertinent quote:
"Michigan Stadium would need to be modified however to meet World Cup specifications. The field would need to be widened and the AstroTurf replaced with natural grass. One conceivable way of doing this would be to raise the field with scaffolding and cover the first eight rows. Of course the field would have to be removed in time for our American football season."
Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to attend. I have 4 tickets that want to give away, I just ask that you use them and not try to resell them. They're section 3 row 26. Email me at [email protected] if interested!
