Give this team a Parade tonight or tomorrow!
Congrats to all of the fellow Michigan Football faithful and lovers. A special moment for us all!
Jim Harbaugh in his interviews has called for a Parade in Ann Arbor, and that the team wants that, since the big win.
Blake Corum on Rich Eisen said he wants a parade when they back to Ann Arbor, and has talked to Harbaugh and Teammates about it.
Does anyone here have the logistical capabilities to begin planning this or build momentum for it?
We owe it to this team and to the coaches and Harbaugh.
Go Blue to everyone. Savoring this one.

Jon Jansen said he thought Saturday but wasn't sure.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:03 PM ^
The area is supposed to get slammed with snow Friday/Saturday.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:54 PM ^
They're already planning the logistics for one. Date and time TBD.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:08 PM ^
Superstitious me is so thankful they didn't plan the logistics ahead of time
January 9th, 2024 at 3:36 PM ^
Is there going to be any kind of announcement? I want to fly up from Texas to attend
January 9th, 2024 at 2:55 PM ^
I know our athletic department takes some heat, sometimes deserved, other times not. But my guess is they are already coordinating this with the city and university.
January 9th, 2024 at 2:56 PM ^
I'm thinking of a route - South U and State Street have to be on the parade path.
Go Blue!

N.U to State to Hill to Main, end in the Big House. I can see starting on S. U, but it would be nice to fully pass by the Union.

You serious? I'm pretty sure, you know, the University and the City of Ann Arbor will take care of the logistics and not GRBluefan from Mgoblog.com.

Dude, relax.

As I've mentioned to people outside of the blog, the weather forecast for this week - particularly the weekend - is not promising. They could do this perhaps next week. We'll be here all the same.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:54 PM ^
I don’t think they can delay it too long. Guys are probably going to start moving on to the next thing on their schedule.
January 9th, 2024 at 4:02 PM ^
They are not going to hold a parade if the weather is 15 degrees and snowy (actual forecast for this weekend). It's too dangerous.
If they somehow can't get a parade together by Thursday (which would be tough), I think they're likely to have a big rally in Crisler.
But other than that, basically from Friday on, it's either 30 MPH wind, 20 degrees (or much colder), and/or snowy. That is not "let's gather tens of thousands of people outside on the street" weather.
January 9th, 2024 at 4:17 PM ^
I am seeing the same weather outlook.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:09 PM ^
If Corum and the guys want a parade, give 'em a parade.
Wish I could fly in for this one, but looking at the weather, maybe not a good idea.
January 9th, 2024 at 4:15 PM ^
Travel could be difficult, even for us locals on Saturday.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:28 PM ^
This is just great. Looking forward to seeing video. I hope good weather happens soon because we don't want to wait to do it too long. Sooner the better.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:31 PM ^
Thank you everybody for your comments and information.
Let’s keep momentum on this topic - they deserve it.

There was a parade in early-1998. There will be a parade in early-2024. In 1998, there also was an indoor celebration at Crisler. I would expect the same.
in the words of the great Nikola Jokic “I f*cking want to stay on parade!”
January 9th, 2024 at 3:53 PM ^
Hopefully they get the parade, but the weather looks atrocious for Saturday.
January 9th, 2024 at 3:56 PM ^
I don't care if the weather is bad. In fact, I'd prefer a parade in the snow.
January 9th, 2024 at 4:07 PM ^
Celebration will be Saturday. Details will come out tomorrow morning!
January 9th, 2024 at 4:13 PM ^
There was a parade in Jan 1998. As for this time, the sooner the better. Maybe Thursday. The decent weather window is closing on Friday and Saturday. Next week, we'll be in the deep freeze as in bloody cold. I'll be there if it can be pulled off in a few days.
January 9th, 2024 at 4:27 PM ^
Lets show out and let Jim know hes wanted. Hey we can dream, cant we.
GO BLUE
