Who is a known rapper references Ric Flair any chance he gets. Plus, if you're an 18-year-old kid, you might actually watch wrestling. So this is a good pickup.

I will take Ric Flair over whatever flavor of the month wack rapper these kids seem to like nowadays. I mean Big Sean and Wale??? My favorite 90's rappers would have these clowns off stage with the quickness, like KRS One did to PM Dawn.

Harbaugh would destroy him.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:33 PM ^
Is this real life?
January 28th, 2016 at 4:08 PM ^
It's a weird homoerotic soap opera and fantasy. Because let's be honest, if you're a grown man watching professional wrestling, you're at least a little gay.

Doubt the demographics would support that notion. Probably more likely among the female fans. Maybe I'm wrong, but pro wrestlers don't seem like the type gay men would be attracted to. Pro wrestling is more for fans of shitshows, and there's not anything wrong with that either.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:34 PM ^
I was starting to think it was possible that Jim Harbaugh IS Rick Flair. Has anyone ever seen them together before?
Seriously I don't even know what this event is anymore. All I do know is that Harbaugh knows how to LIVE, and this is the kind of stuff the NFL doesn't offer.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:39 PM ^
Maybe we can get this guy to come down from the rafters and hit an Urban Meyer impersonator with a bat?
January 29th, 2016 at 12:19 AM ^
Just as long as they don't try and send a Hart brother down from the rafters. I hear that doesnt end well.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:48 PM ^
can't......stop......watching......
January 28th, 2016 at 3:35 PM ^
I can swear I remember Ric Flair dying?
January 28th, 2016 at 3:53 PM ^
You're thinking of the Ultimate Warrior
Or maybe Abe Vigoda
January 28th, 2016 at 4:19 PM ^
Abe Vigoda.
January 28th, 2016 at 4:46 PM ^
Also, hate to burst your bubble, but wrestling is scripted. It didn't really happen.

Worst angle ever.

January 28th, 2016 at 3:35 PM ^
dude is broke af. i wonder what we're paying him
January 28th, 2016 at 3:37 PM ^
I know someone was giving tickets away the other day too it...
January 28th, 2016 at 4:16 PM ^
I was sent an email invite yesterday for it. I'm assuming it was sent to all season ticket holders. All I had to do was sign into my account and choose how many tickets I wanted. All they're asking for are donations to The ChadTough Foundation, which I'd obviously be glad to donate to even if there weren't any tickets involved.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:37 PM ^
January 28th, 2016 at 3:38 PM ^
Jerry Lawler?
Martha and The Vandella
The Two Tops
Pooky and Black Tooth
The Faygo Kid
Diana and Betsy Ross
Milky the Clown
Denny McLain
Captain Bob-lo
January 28th, 2016 at 3:39 PM ^
This is the most awesome random collection of people ever.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:40 PM ^
Think we can get Motley Crue to perform the event?
January 28th, 2016 at 3:52 PM ^
Why not? Maybe wheel in a mumified Michael Jackson next to a caged grizzy bear to add to this Carnival of the Bizarre.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:47 PM ^
January 28th, 2016 at 4:29 PM ^
and wonder how you mix them together to get a football focused event about the kids who are signing their LOIs. Really, I'm at a loss on this.
January 28th, 2016 at 10:41 PM ^
I pray to God Holtz doesn't get picked for the skins team.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:39 PM ^
January 28th, 2016 at 3:43 PM ^
... what the hell is going on? As if NSD wasn't enough of a spectacle already. Is anyone else getting a C-List Superbowl-Party-vibe with all of this.
Someone start a thread entitled: Who would you invite to your Signing of the Stars event?
January 28th, 2016 at 3:40 PM ^
to pull his hair out! Oh...wait.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:42 PM ^
January 28th, 2016 at 3:48 PM ^
And catering provided by Cracker Barrel.
January 28th, 2016 at 5:29 PM ^
January 28th, 2016 at 4:02 PM ^
No, we already have a Bosse, and hopefully a Boss as well in this recruiting class.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:43 PM ^
MSU has scheduled Signing Day With The Situation.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:44 PM ^
I honestly do not know if I can keep up with this Crootin' thing each year anymore. Harbaugh and Co. are going to drain the life out of me... all I want to do is to be able know who we are recruiting, who is committed and who isn't. I don't think that is plausible anymore, because if you go one day without MgoBlog or another recruiting service you won't be able to catch up.
But, I love it. Thank you, Harbaugh.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:45 PM ^
Most of these VIPs are for the benefit of the kids and to stir up interest in Michigan's program. This is the first year I really paid attention to recruiting. And it'll be the last year it's too much! I'm certain the end product will be spectacular but getting there is too much of a rollercoaster.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:44 PM ^
into a ridiculous freak show.
January 28th, 2016 at 3:46 PM ^
We crossed that line at Lou Holtz
January 28th, 2016 at 4:05 PM ^
and cap it off with a Harbaugh vs Flair tree-climbing contest with play-by-play by Holtz. It's the Michigan Differensh!

I'll bet the OP didn't even know who Ric Flair is until this was announced.
I kid.....sort of.
