I think someone (maybe me??) once posted a thread about collegiate crocs on sale. I bought the UM crocs for $10 with free shipping. I left them at the gym about a year later and never saw them again. But yes, Michigan crocs was also a thread. I, for one, don't mind the random threads about random Michigan-branded products.

It burns brightly during most of the nonconference season, but the wick is not sound and the candle fizzes out during the B1G season.  The candle has all the talent it needs, but the wick lacks leadership and can't develop the wax appropriately.

I bought one and it is not burning evenly.  Something's wrong with it, but I can't figure out what it is.  I'm burning it for the proper amount of time, but it's just not working.  I'm serious.  I never equated it to the football team!

As a side note, when I bought it, the lady helping me was a Michigan fan.  She says all the Spartans are annoyed that "their" candle is balsam fir scented, a well known crappy scent in the Yankee candle community.

college logo stuff there is now compared to when I was a student eons ago.  Every time I go into the M-Den on State St. they have more and more of a variety of U-M items filling up both floors.  Other than shirts and hats, most of the college logo stuff back in the late 70's was junk.  I'll say that today there are some pretty cool things.  That candle isn't one of them though!
