Bars open for noon games?

Submitted by 2Blue4You on

I have frequented the traditional tailgates for years since undergrad at UM and was looking to switch it up one of these games.  I was wondering if/when bars open for some Saturday morning drinking.  Ideally Main St. area, but State St. and South U. are not out of the question.  Was hoping to make a few stops on my migration to the Big House.  

Ashley's? BWW? Packard Pub? Connor's? Thanks for the insight. Go Blue!

I know of no bar in Ann Arbor that is open at 8 AM.  The Brown Jug and the Blue Leprachaun (both on South U) open at 9 AM.  Those are the places I usually hit up prior to a Noon game when I eschew tailgating.  Charleys, BW3, and most of the other bars just off campus are open by 11:00, which is baffling to me since I would think there is some money to be made by being open earlier on a football Saturday.

I did this last week...angelos for breakfast at 7 then walked to the bar. ashley's, bww, connors, red hawk all closed. dominiks opened at 8 so we sat there and drank constant buzz and sangria most of the morning

In a similar vein, are there any late-night place besides the Fleetwood open near campus? Say, between 2:00 AM and 6:30 AM?  Are there any bars that serve until 2:00 AM and allow you to drink-up until 2:30?
