2013 Michigan Mott Spring Game presented by PNC Bank announced

Weather for Ann Arbor in mid April?

on both objectives

The garage sale was in the fall last year.

Went to my first last year, met up with my brother and made a fun weekend out of it.  If it's like last years, don't expect much more than a glorified practice, but it's fun to have access to the stadium and see the guys up close.  Let's all hope there isn't another ACL tear in the Alumni game :(  Have full confidence the University takes care of the guys, but still, it's tough to see someone go down in game where they are just having fun.  

Something to watch out for; the city of Ann Arbor views the Spring Game as a 'Game Day' so any places that have free parking are probably going to be off limits.  Have heard (cough, cough) that if you park on the street by Yost you will be towed.  Then you get to spend the rest of your afternoon finding out how to get to the police station to pay the fine then finding a cab to give you a lift out to the outskirts to get your rental car from the towing company.  A little bitter... maybe.  In the city's defense, the signs are clearly posted, we just made a bad assumption.  Still had an awesome time.

The average margin of victory for the Blue Team is 15.1 points, and the average margin of victory for the White Team is 9.1 points. Here is the record of the Blue Team by decade, the mirror of which is, of course, the White Team's record:

I've been to all of them since 1997 with the exception of two, the years in which my kids were born actually (2006 and 1007). This is a nice way to spend a day (for minimal investment) around the program and talk to other fans and alums. That, and by then it has typically been too long since the last football game, so there's a fix of sorts needed. 

Yea really. I mean Tupac can't make it to both and that's bullshit.

Both weekends have the same artists

But she is as a big a fan as me. I know how lucky I am

on your expectations, and if you have family, plan other activities etc.

It's not like a real game atmosphere certainly.

I brought my 7 yr old daughter last year & I knew she'd be bored pretty quickly.
We hit the fantastic Children's Museum first, then snacked our way  through the end of the alumni-Spring Game-start of LAX game and she was pooped, cold, bored etc.  The smartphone apps & movie helped her make it that far.

I could have done all three events just fine by myself (knowing it wasn't going to be a full scrimmage) but wanted to get my daughter some cheap Michigan Football exposure.

My advice (even for an individual) is to make it PART of a day or weekend in AA, that way if the weather is awful you have other options.
