Highlights: PNC will sponsor game and some money goes to Mott
Locker room tours are on Friday night as well.
The band and others will "participate" in the Spring Game, which I don't remember seeing last year.
Tailgate locations
IIRC, it was PETR not PETER
My name is a take-off on his (based on a dispute with my brother - long story). Anyway, I am not the real Petr Klima.
As far as I'm concerned, you are the real Petr Klima.
Is there some kind of itinerary for friday night and saturday posted somewhere? Seems like alot of events going on but can't find timelines anywhere. Any info would be appreciated, driving up from Alabama and want to maximize my time. GO BLUE!!
locker room tours 6:30-8 p.m. on Friday (April 16) and from 7-9:30 a.m. on Saturday (April 17).
Cool, thanks for the info, any autograph sessions happening?
I will be available for autographs near Varsity Plaza from 8-10a.
I live in Fairhope, Al. I got gas money...
Yeah the band was there last year. They weren't in full gear - it was more like a pep band. I think I remember RR saying he wanted to try and imitate a real game as close as possible.
Somebody needs to Big Billy Dollaz-ize Brandon.
Other than the donation to Mott, there is very little about this to get excited about. A corporate sponsor for the Spring Game?
i heard everyone who goes gets a free maize PNC Bank t-shirt.
in Pittsburgh...where the Pirates play, If you've never been I say go. It's an amazing ball park. Of course go on a day the Pirates aren't playing though, because that's a buzz kill.
I wouldn't go to a Pirates games if I lived in their stadium.
Is the best ballpark I've ever been to. Hands down. What a view! What great food! What a putrid team! If it weren't for the Kansas City Royals, I'd call the Pirates the first AAAA major league team.
If you've got a rooting interest in the NL Central, going to Pirates games is awesome. I'm going to at least 5-10 this year.
Tshirts? I would rather take the cash.
It is nice that a big bank will give money to Mott Hospital but I sure hope David Brandon doesn't go overboard on this. I would hate to attend a football game and have to use the MGM Grand Mens Room.
How about the "Detroit Free Press Urinals" in the "MGM Grand Men's Room," with pictures of Drew Sharp or Mike Rosenberg in each urinal?
compliments of the U-M Athletic Department, David Brandon, Director. I don't think the Freep would pony up. They've spent their money on endowing the Dantonio Chair of Criminal Excuses up there in East Lansing.
You've obviously not used the MGM Grand Mens Restroom before ... It's quite ... Well ... Grand!
Cool, I thought they weren't having them but will definitely try to leave even earlier now to get in.
Last year I arrived at a time I considered to be early, and at that point the line stretched all the way around Crisler and back to the Stadium/Main intersection. If you want to actually get into the locker room, you'll have to arrive long before the tours start.
My parents came into town and we got to the stadium at what we thought was a decent enough time. We were wrong.
The worst part was that we were literally going to be the next group let in when they stopped the tours. The rest of the day made up for it though as I was one of the random students picked to hold the banner and then I got to watch the whole game from the sidelines. Me and my house mate looked like giddy little schoolgirls getting our picture taken with Desmond Howard.
First the piped in RAWK Music, now corporate sponsorship for our sacred Spring Game. Where will it end? Next thing you will know, we will have apparel logos like Nike or Adidas on our uniforms. Why, Rich Rod, do you insist on ruining everything that is great in the world.
/sarcasm
Line up early, this was mobbed last year and many peeps waited in line but didn't make it in.
GO BLUE!
Getting ever closer to maize jerseys....
