They will update the standings daily. The official goal for this year is $700,000 - which has been eclipsed in previous years. 

Michigan has won the event every year. This was the 2022 final board. Much like Michigan vs. Ohio State the last 2 years, run it up and leave no doubt.

they also include a pretty classic sparty reference on the front page.

i have this belief that the charity drive is the origin of the famous / infamous "money cannon" phrase.  it may not be the case, but i think of the drive every time i hear it.  i'd love to see the all-time results - i'm guessing we're up near a million bucks all on our own?  maybe?

in any case all that money goes to a really good cause.  first and foremost, we get bragging rights.  oh, and we made spencer get a michigan tattoo once.  also, he's promised to play golf (which he hates) in a pair of JNCO jeans if the drive reaches an overall stretch goal of $1,000,000 this year.  and yeah, yeah, it also benefits refugee resettlement services, blah blah blah.

go big, and go hard.

Spencer also sports two Michigan-themed tats from past michigan victories.  One of the victims of tha Allen, Texas mall shooting was a long time employee of New American Pathways.  These are good people and a good charity.  We were all immigrants at one point or another.

Go Blue!  Go Make Spencer Eat Cheese University!

My 87.50 (plus processing) is in.  We’ll have to work hard with an A&M donor throwing in 50 grand out the gates, but I believe in the power of the money cannon.
