I went to a few when I was there. You'll get some laughs and its for a good cause. IMO definitely worthwhile.

Men's Rowing. Circle of Life. Awesome.
February 16th, 2010 at 2:57 PM ^
Go. Absolute worst case, you feel good about yourself for helping out Mott's.
Though there tend to be a couple acts that go above and beyond and are awesome.
February 16th, 2010 at 3:25 PM ^
Chill, my man...he posed a question as to whether it was worth attending. Don't be that guy.
February 16th, 2010 at 3:58 PM ^
Why I am I getting negbanged? I didn't say anything rude, I just said it was already posted. Half the posts on the board have plenty of comments saying things were redundantly posted in a negative way. I was just pointing people in the direction of a more informative post that would answer the poster's questions. I think Mock Rock is great. I have attended in the past. Unfortunately I am not in Ann Arbor so I can't go today.

Not sure exactly. I find that when something isn't on the front page, it generally gets a pass from most people. That, or if it's got a cause behind it, like the Mott's Hospital, people give it extra press. So by just saying, "check out the opinions at this thread from earlier," it would have been more "mgo-kosher".
That said, if someone starts another thread about Gardner, how many wins, position battles, depth charts, or anything regarding that, feel free to ridicule to oblivion.
Just my e-pinions.

may have something to do with this being your first day with an account and calling out a worthy cause.
To OP: it is always worth it going to to any event attended by Charles Woodson.
February 16th, 2010 at 5:05 PM ^
FTR I didn't neg you, I was just saying it's a nice cause and what the heck, at least it's not "Devin Gardner-Denard Robinson-QB battle-win total-RR hotseat" nonsense.
Oh and by the way, welcome to the board. We're glad to have you.
February 16th, 2010 at 4:00 PM ^
Actually it was already already posted:

BOOM. [Unnecessary-noun]'d

I posted it last night, but I don't think good causes can be posted about enough. It's a great event for charity. You'll get your laughs in, give money to a good cause, and you might be lucky enough to be Charles Woodson. An all around good night if you are available.
February 16th, 2010 at 3:38 PM ^
"you might be lucky enough to be Charles Woodson"
If only that were the case, the would break attendance records.
February 16th, 2010 at 3:31 PM ^
I'll posbang anybody who goes to Mock Rock and writes about it.
February 16th, 2010 at 3:44 PM ^
If somebody goes to Mock Rock and writes a Diary about it, there's a pretty good chance it would get frontpaged...
February 16th, 2010 at 8:53 PM ^
i have a crew team member in the chem125 section I GSI. Their skit sounds pretty cool.
February 16th, 2010 at 10:42 PM ^
Just got back. Great time.
You got your usual "let's wear tights in flamboyant colors and rub up against each other with glowsticks acts" (mens tennis, mens swimming and diving)
You got your AWFUL acts. Women's tennis tried a magic show and it stunk. Men's lacrosse attempted a rap about..lax bros. Being a bro. It didn't work out.
Women's rowing attempted "I'm on a Boat!" That SNL skit. It was pretty good, funny in some parts. The level of costume detail was incredible.
But women's cross country/track stole the show. They performed a Mo-town skit, a la Soul Train, and took us through some 70's funk. I loved it, and it got first place.
Let's see...mens track did Toy Story, which was pretty cool..one of the judges claimed to have never seen Toy Story. WTF.
Marching Band, lead by my friend D-Hinez (drum major) took it to another level. They created an Alice in Big Ten Wonderland Skit, about a girl trying to decide where to go to college between us, OSU, MSU, PSU.
featuring the Mad Hatter and the PSU crew, who like to party all day..
two little, Sparty-gear donning twins who Alice said to "Aww, you're so cute! Like my little Brothers!"
...and the Queen of Hearts as the "Queen of Buckeyes". Then they danced to "Poker Face" by lady Gaga.
Men's soccer was probably the funniest. Contemporary Dramatic Readings + Britney Spears lyrics = HILARITY. Something like this

Football? They just hopped around to this song

It was alright, but nothing special.
*EDIT* How could I forget? The sheer awesomeness of Men's Rowing Star Wars skit! Luke! Yoda! X-fighters and Tie-Fighters! a Death Star! Han Solo, R2D2, C-3P0, Darth Vader.. Lightsabers...and a narrator.
February 16th, 2010 at 10:44 PM ^
Sounds like either women's track or Men's rowing?
February 16th, 2010 at 10:45 PM ^
Women's track and Cross country
