I know that they are doing the locker room tours from 8 AM to 10 AM, and at 10 the alumni flag football game starts, and after that is the actual spring game. Not sure how long people want to tailgate for. Me and some friends will be driving from a decent distance so I'm not sure how much help we could be. I'm always up for bringing beer though.

As far as the timing: I'm not getting up earlier than 8AM for the spring game. If people want to check out the alumni game they can go do that. The locker room tours might be cool but I'll skip 'em. They really need to move the game back to like 3 if they're going to have cool stuff beforehand.

I'm willing to bring whatever supplies are needed.

Food and/or drink.

If anyone has a beverage of choice or any requests, just say so and I will toss it into the cooler.

I figure, like a noon game in the fall, I'd like to leave Toledo between 8:30-9....and since I wont be fretting over what games I need to bet before leaving, I might actually get out of town on time for once.

Looking forward to meeting everyone.

I'm going to shamelessly bump this thread for a recap of pertinent info so far:
Meet around 9 (I'll be there a little earlier) near the bus stop outside Crisler in the main stadium lot.
Bring what you want to eat. I'll try to provide a grill, (maybe) some burgers, and (probably) some beer. This will require I acquire a cooler, but whatever.

If people want to RSVP in this thread, I certainly wouldn't be opposed to it.
