Rows in Yost?
So, this was supposed to be the best home football schedule of UM in a few years and for a few years to come. As a recent season ticket holder, I was so stoked to come into town for at least 5 of the games to catch up with my 2 best friends doing our favorite thing - tailgating and rooting for the Wolverines. I got a hall pass from wifey to go to at 5 games, WMU, ND, Purdue, Neb. and ohio (although it was mission).
Of course, three family medical emergencies put the kaibash on WMU, ND, and Purdue. Extreeeem frustration, but thankful that those people are okay.
To make up for not making it to those games, I've planned the Ultimate Michigan Sports Weekend Nov. 18-19. Taking half day on Friday, Nov. 18, drive up to AA, take in the scene, eat dinner, then watch M beat ohio in hockey at Yost with friends and family. Stay at local hotel, get up and tailgate for M-Nebraska game, watch M beat Nebska.
My question for the board is how many rows high are the sideline sections of Yost? Our tickets for the hockey game are Sect. 2 (goal line), row 16. Anyone have picks from goal line seats at Yost?
Other ideas for making the ultimate Ultimate Michigan Sports Weekend better are also welcome, as is a dialouge of other Ultimate Michigan Sports Weekends.

Those seats are right next the zamboni entrance. The rows go up to 18 or 19 I believe. The seats have a pretty good view of the ice. I don't know what the view is like for the scoreboard though. And you are on the end that UofM shoots twice.

I've sat in row 17 multiple times. Yost is the kind of arena where you are practically right on top of the ice. Every seat in the house is good therefore you will be just fine in row 16.
One thing that always makes a night better is a few tasty Michigan beers on tap. Head over to Ashley's to grab some tasty locals. I was there on Friday night and was drinking Founders Breakfast Stout all night. Real tasty stuff.

I just bought tickets to the hockey game on nov. 19th. Are section 109 row 4 good seats?

Those are in the removable bleachers directly behind the end that Michigan defends twice, so pretty close to the glass. They're good seats in the sense that most fans at live sporting events prefer having a great view of some of the action, rather than having a good view of all of the action.

other than the two or three parts with obstructed views, which you won't have, you can't go wrong. Definitely stop by Ashley's or The Arena before!
