Haha, I should have seen that
Haha, I should have seen that coming. I already have a Jake Long and Chad Henne signed Michigan hat and jersey which will stay in my family forever. One day I will own Michigan memorabilia up the gazoo, but for now I am an out-of-state U-M student just trying to make tuition.
Stay thirsty my friends
Yep
I think that we're all hoping that they do that. Who on here wouldn't want to buy an old seat from there? And even if I can't get something slightly pragmatic like and old seat, I'd still like something to remember the press box by and just to have as Michigan memorabilia.
IIRC, the seats are just folding chairs
And stools. But I haven't been in the press box in more than 10 years.
The Univ has said it will save the art deco lettering atop the press box, but, to my knowledge, will demolish the structure itself.
good!
"The Univ has said it will save the art deco lettering atop the press box,"
I was wondering what they were going to do with that. Now for the important bit - what are they going to do with the fake eagle?
Convert it to student
Convert it to student housing.
Touchdown Michigan!
you know how when a home team
you know how when a home team pulls off a huge win, sometimes the fans will storm the field and pull down the goal posts?
I say, if we beat Ohio State, we dismantle the press box.
Donate to Sparty Alumni Assn...
... beats living in a van, down by the (Red Cedar) river.
ripping it
apart from the inside out and throwing it down the elevator shafts. you want some? Wait until after the season then go dumpster diving. Or, bribe a construction worker on site.

Auction?
That's a great idea. They would definitely make tons of money from it. It would be a really classy move if they donated the proceeds to the Children's Hospital.
I say
we put all of our MGOpoints together to buy it and make it the MGOBLOG official headquarters. Location in Ann Arbor to be determined.
Turn it into a bar.

Recycling
Haul it off to the dump but keep it intact as a "press box." Afterall, the Freep beat reports will still need a place to sit during games.
The Free Press is dead to me
I want to live inside it.

Put it on a flatbed truck
and let it tour the country like
the Wienermobile.
Love & Hate are horns on the same goat.
