Stadium Pants - update
http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/ot-stadium-pantsI
Could not resist picking up a pair of the blue/gold argyle pants from LoudMouth profiled when you scroll down the previous post - rocked them Saturday as their first "wear". Seriously one of the most fun days I have every had tailgating @ AAGO. They were a huge hit with the crowd and what a chick-magnet they are! I must have had my picture taken at least 50 times and it was so much fun being invited from tent to tent. Thanks to everyone for the random blue jello shots, Jaeger hits, and various beers & cocktails that came my way. Even Sparties admired them., except for the one who said only a Wal-Mart Wolverine would buy them. Because of the way our football team executed, I am worried they were somewhat of a "curse" so they are back in the closet for a rest. But they introduced me to so many great folks fans Saturday and it re-confirmed what we all already know - M fans are classy and all-around awesome.
GO BLUE!

Those pants are not a curse, they're an icebreaker. A conduit to various spirits and malts. Wear them with purpose. Wear them with pride.

You very well may have just jinxed the entire season. Never change up routine on a winning streak! You're going to have to do a lot more than just put them in the back of the closet. You're going to have to hold an exorcism. You're going to have to burn the pants and bury the ashes where they burned.

You're just saying that because you're jealous of all the attention he got.
October 12th, 2010 at 2:48 PM ^
I'm too old to get jealous.
October 12th, 2010 at 3:36 PM ^
I'm jealous of your ability to not be jealous.
October 12th, 2010 at 4:26 PM ^
I'm jealous of your ability to get jealous, even if its simply being jealous of someone who does not get jealous himself.

That jinx just messed up all of our superstitions. Now we all need to find a new game shirt/jersey, game pants, game boxer shorts, etc. Dang it.
October 12th, 2010 at 3:45 PM ^
it's all my fault...i wore my maize henne/gardner jersey instead of my blue woodson one.
October 12th, 2010 at 4:15 PM ^
Dyed my own hair on Friday instead of getting it done, went out the night before instead of staying in, made biscuits instead of waffles for breakfast, wore a tank top instead of a tshirt, left pregaming briefly for lunch, AND sat in a different section. UNACCEPTABLE.

Don't you know that biscuits will never hold up in Big Ten country? What, do you think this is the SEC?

and you are beyond stud. Everyone will want your cast-offs!
October 12th, 2010 at 2:09 PM ^
You'll never get lost wearing those
October 12th, 2010 at 2:09 PM ^
Those pants are epic!!!

White belt and shoes says "George Perles" or "Darryl Rogers" to me. Perhaps you had a better solution than the pictured model, who was clearly set for the golf course. Please tell me that you found a maize belt. You would rule the world.
October 12th, 2010 at 2:29 PM ^
sorry, white belt similar to the model - works ok with white sneaks for golf course tailgates. the maize-out provided a challenge since that's not really "maize" its more gold. but i have a Nike golf shirt that was close enuf match to make it synch. seriously, the women went ape over these and i had two different guys who wanted to buy them off me on the spot. put them on your holiday wish list!

Reminds me of a pair of pants John Daly would wear.
October 12th, 2010 at 4:39 PM ^
Those are some loud, ugly pants. Did John Daly lose a bet? (too soon?)
October 12th, 2010 at 2:13 PM ^
Those pants would look awesome if you wore them rocking the Stonum presser glasses. Quite a look, if you can pull it off.

that stovepipe cut. My uncle Don, who was a designer at Chrysler and then Ford, used to go to Maurice the Hatter and other black Woodward clothiers for his beyond-amazing duds back in the 60s, when we were kids. I don't know as he ever got that free, but that was the basic stylee.
October 12th, 2010 at 2:53 PM ^
I bet your uncle Don was going to Louis the Hatter. I don't think I'm quite as old as he is, but I'm old enough to remember that Louis the Hatter ran commercials featuring Lions players—both black and white—modeling his duds during the local TV broadcasts of Lions games in the early 1960s. Classic local TV.

radio ads used to say something like, "Open every evenin' till they close." Now I'll be wracking my brain all night trying to remember what station that was. Better email my old East Quad compere Irving; he'll know.
