Do you have to be an alumni to attend these watch parties? I am in Fuquay Varina and would love to watch the game with other fans, but am not an alumni.
January 5th, 2024 at 6:09 PM ^
You do not! I've been going to these watch parties since I moved here in 21. As far as I know it will still be showing at wild wing Cafe in Brier Creek and at least half the bar gets filled up for these types of big games

Just moved to morrisville a year ago from Seattle. Would love to come by to the alumni club. Thx!

Go blue from Pinehurst. I'll be heading to Houston but would be nice to meet other M fans in this area at some point.
January 5th, 2024 at 6:06 PM ^
Nice I live in Eastern NC. That would cool to meet up with other 〽️ fans for a watch party
January 5th, 2024 at 6:20 PM ^
Hey I just moved to Raleigh, I’ll do my best to go Monday and would be great to meet other UM fans/alumni here
January 5th, 2024 at 6:55 PM ^
Would love to catch up with some fellow Wolverine fans as well. Lived in Chapel Hill for the last 18 years but still represent! I’ll be in Houston this weekend living a lifelong dream. Go Blue!

Was in Raleigh in 2019 to visit family and watched the MSU game at Wild Wings. It was a great gathering and they do a nice job hosting!
January 5th, 2024 at 7:00 PM ^
Man, I miss living in that area.
January 5th, 2024 at 7:01 PM ^
I'm in Durham and currently don't have plans. Might end up at the BWWs watch party.
January 6th, 2024 at 8:44 AM ^
They said Wild Wings Cafe, not BWW. BDubbs will likely have the game on but it won’t be the watch party you’re hoping for
January 6th, 2024 at 10:27 AM ^
Ah you're right!
January 5th, 2024 at 7:13 PM ^
Checking in from Lewisville, NC (Just outside of Winston Salem, NC). Go Blue to all the Wolverines in the marvelous State!!!
January 6th, 2024 at 6:01 AM ^
I start a new job in West Greensboro in two weeks. It’s not too far from Winston-Salem.
January 6th, 2024 at 9:41 AM ^
Congrats! Are you moving from another state from this job? Gboro is nice for sure.
January 6th, 2024 at 4:27 PM ^
Thanks! I live in Raleigh and will be considered a remote employee, but I will be in the office 2-3 days per week.
January 6th, 2024 at 9:27 AM ^
Hey! I am in Winston-Salem! Go Blue from a neighbor in the triad!
January 6th, 2024 at 9:39 AM ^
Right on! How long you been in WS?
I have been here for 20yrs. Moved from West Palm Beach, FL and it’s the best move I’ve ever made. I’m in love with the area, the weather, the cost of living, and access to mountains and the ocean.
January 6th, 2024 at 4:42 PM ^
I have been here almost 10 years. Love it here. Agree on all points. Moved from the panhandle of FL.
Grew up in MI and Dad went to Michigan Medical. Grew up going to games as Dad had season tickets! Hope we can connect at some point!
Go Blue!
January 5th, 2024 at 8:15 PM ^
I'll be watching from the comfort of my home in Durham. The family came down with the flu a few days ago and I am hoping we're all feeling better by Monday!
EDIT: and it's interesting to hear from others that live in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area. Wondering if we've crossed paths. I live in the Brightleaf at the Park subdivision at US-70 and Miami Blvd.
January 6th, 2024 at 5:39 AM ^
I worked off of Miami Blvd for several years. Considered building a home in Brightleaf (Drees), but ended up in Apex instead. I now live in Southwest Raleigh near Cary Crossroads.
Hope you all feel better soon.

Brier Creek seems so far from downtown RAL, this just might be the game to make the effort!
January 6th, 2024 at 5:46 AM ^
I hated that drive when I lived in North Raleigh. Glenwood has so many lights and gets crazy between downtown and Crabtree, but it’s really the only way to make that trip. Would be worth it for this game though,
M-TAC runs events all year long for Michigan fans to meet and have fun...
However, many of these events use the UM alumni events page to register for the event. The UM Alumni events page requires that you prove you graduated from UM. So, that brings up the question...
Must you be an actual Michigan Alumni to participate in scheduled M-TAC events? Is there another way for people like me, who took some classes at UM and is lifelong Michigan fan to register for events without using the UM Alumni event website?
