MGoSponsor Note: Sports Power Weekends Now Book-able
Some of you got to meet friend of the blog Jared Cooper when he was in town sponsoring the Marlin Jackson meet-'n-greet. He's the guy who puts together those trip packages with a game ticket included for away games or in Ann Arbor with extra tours and stuff.

Anyone who books with him (on most programs) gets a reusable code for 20% off the MGoStore. Also if you want to put a group trip together for another game (like a bachelor party in Ann Arbor for Minnesota weekend or whatever) he can do that for you.
This should be bumped to Diary. Great info!
Anyone can feel free to contact me through the site if you are interested in attending any of these games or customizing your trip in any way.
Thanks and Go Blue!
All of this looks interesting. Unfortunately I don't think I will be able to do any of these because of other plans, I may recommend this to people looking for packages.
Thank you. Please do recommend, and have people contact me through the site. Happy to help!
