If you have tickets to The Game:  

  1. Go to The Game and support your team,
  2. Use the MGoBoard ticket spreadsheet, or
  3. If you are a member of the UM Alumni Association, use their new ticket exchange: http://alumni.umich.edu/join/members-only?dest=/members/ticket-exchange

We have 99% of the tickets, don't be the traitor who supports the enemy to make a quick buck.  It is not worth it.  Every M fan in the stadium makes a positive difference and every ohio fan makes a big negative difference.  Only you can prevent this.  

And how many times have we ruined their hopes with a great upset?  Why not witness another one?

The Seniors and Juniors on Team 134 deserve and need our support for their last game at Michigan Stadium versus ohio.  Don't let them down.

Hearing that horrid, vomit inducing, shit stain chant in our stadium, OUR STADIUM, was one of the saddest moments I've ever felt as a Michigan fan. Especially considering that game was never really out of reach, score-wise.

This will be the first time I'm back for a game since 2011 OSU. I will be in the student section, lined up at least 2-3 hours before kickoff to get as good a seat as possible. If the student section is not full at least 20 mins before kickoff, then I honestly won't know what to believe anymore. I don't want Braxton Miller to even be able to hear himself think for an entire 60 minutes.

Will be tough to fill the student section considering a ton of students won't even be on campus.  Of the people I normally go to games with, only one of them is coming back for the game.

Tickets are going as low as $35 on the student facebook groups.  Definitely more people looking to sell than buy.

To this modern contrivance called "a car."  You can drive to Ann Arbor from Metro Detroit and visit. Or you could, you know, drive to Ann Arbor for a football game and go home afterwards. Only about 80-90,000 people do it every other weekend in the fall.

You will not have to go 2-3 hours before kick off to get a good seat. I strolled in 30 minutes before kick off for Nebraska and was in row 8.

 

Students are trying like hell to sell their tickets on CL. There are a ton of tickets flooding the market right now. Regardless of the game this week, the earliest you would need to arrive to get within the bottom 10 rows would be 1 hour before, at best.

 

ND was the only game that I had to line up 3 hours early for and was still in row 15.

I was there in 2009 and it was awful. I also overheard many people near the end of the Nebraska game this year saying they weren't coming back for OSU. I told them they should. Hopefully it was only emotion and a few weeks inbetween will help them see the light!

 

GO BLUE!! BEAT OHIO!!

almost nothing worse than the douchebag that needs to bring his buckeye friend to the game.....if they don't take you to ohio, you don't need to bring them here.....

Not all OSU fans are worthless. Some are called friends. You are probably the one who would get a drink spilled on you or thrown at you while at the Horseshoe. Grow up and realize everyone cheers for their favorite team and sometimes that team is not Michigan.

Yeah, they're called "Michigan fans." 

Everyone cheers for their own team. Some teams just have a much larger percentage of assholes among those who cheer for them.

to boo...and pay PSDs, and watch the same shit week in and week out...yeah I'm really convinced it fucking matters...keep jacking prices while bringing in MAC and Dll opponents, keep reaching for ways to charge premium prices against less than premium opponents while playing less than premium football. Call me a bad fan all you want. At this point I give a shit. I've sat til the clock reads zero for a few decades now, watching folks sell off games, watching our schedule shift to cupcakes amd watch the program struggle..whatever. Get off the high horse and save judgement for your own choices.

is supporting your team when they're down. Not getting angry that it hurts your feelings when they lose. Nobody's accepting mediocrity, but if you don't support Michigan in a game vs. Ohio State, I'd question whether that person has a basic understanding of what it means to be a Michigan fan.

Quite simply actually. You open your web browser, which allows you acces to this thing called the "Internet." In the web address box, type "mgoblog.com." Then on the right side, you will see this thing called "MGoBoard." Press the link for this thread and then select the green arrow to up vote.

Not my place to tell people what to do with their tickets, but if you're not going to the OSU game then what exactly is the point of having season tickets?

I don't remember it being a problem in 2011 with students on thanksgiving break. The student section was still full. 

I just hope people haven't already sold their souls after the msu and nebraska disasters. I think everyone that sells their ticket to a piece of shit buckeye shouldn't be allowed to get tickets next year. Same thing with parking passes in Crisler.

If you paid an absurd amount of money for tickets and you want to get your money back on Stubhub, more power to you. I won't blame anyone who wants to recoup the money from their $200/ea "dynamic pricing" tickets. That's the athletic department's fault for overpricing tickets, along with Hoke's (and staff) fault for having an inferior product. If somebody wants to skip the game, list their tickets, and have some extra money for the holidays ... good for them. It's not exactly an enticing event when you considergoing it'll be cold, we'll probably struggle to score a touchown, and Ohio State will probably win easily. I'm not being a hater, but I am a realist. Best of luck to the team, but the cost of the tickets doesn't match up with the quality of the product on the field (not to mention the dysfunctional scoreboards). Either the team needs to get better, or the tickets need to be cheaper; otherwise, this problem will continue to repeat itself.

but I sold four other tickets six months ago, for a $700 profit. That additional cash allowed me to go to Evanston and East Lansing this year to support MY team on the road. So I can't fault others for doing the same.
