Will UM play fight song via loud-speakers on Saturday?
October 29th, 2020 at 4:57 PM ^
I watched the Minny game with the gf and we played the fight song over the speakers after every TD. It was worth it.
October 29th, 2020 at 5:34 PM ^
She sounds like a keeper
October 29th, 2020 at 7:35 PM ^
False. He should ditch her (and then give me her number).
October 29th, 2020 at 5:45 PM ^
So do you play the fight song when YOU score a touchdown with her?

Pumped in crowd noise?
October 29th, 2020 at 5:07 PM ^
Most likely, but it'll be the standard crowd noise murmur issued by the B10. Must stay at 70 dB unless it's a celebration moment; then it can go to 90 dB.
October 29th, 2020 at 9:41 PM ^
That dial is going to get a fucking workout then
October 29th, 2020 at 5:01 PM ^
All the schools were doing it last week, I expect we will as well. Piped in band, piped in crowd sounds, announcer announcing.
October 29th, 2020 at 5:04 PM ^
and will they play that awesome james earl jones hype video,
'we are the best university in the world!'
'and when the old season is over, it'll be michigan again'
'the team, the team, the team'
can't embed, but here's the link. still gives me goose bumps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqoJmSF235E

I have a few family members and friends that get a text from me every few days with that youtube.
It might be the best thing ever made.
Go Blue.
October 29th, 2020 at 7:34 PM ^
OK, that was amazing! Thanks for posting that!
October 29th, 2020 at 5:15 PM ^
What about touching the banner? Who’s holding it?
I’d say The Victors is a given.
I’d assume cjgrape is doing PA.
October 29th, 2020 at 5:46 PM ^
Maybe the parents in attendance will?
October 29th, 2020 at 6:02 PM ^
Yes, cjgrape confirmed in an earlier thread that he will be there doing PA.
October 29th, 2020 at 10:23 PM ^
Yep, I'll be there.
I was up in the press box today checking out some of the new arrangements and protocols.
October 30th, 2020 at 4:59 AM ^
though we all have to listen on TV, can't wait to hear your voice carl. make sure you are xtra nice to our friends from EL.
go blue!
October 29th, 2020 at 5:28 PM ^
The band will play live individually via zoom on the big screem. Heard it here first
October 29th, 2020 at 6:42 PM ^
Music doesn’t sync up on video chat platforms. My wife is a singer.
October 29th, 2020 at 5:37 PM ^
Carl Grapentine confirmed on Social Media that he will indeed be in the booth on Saturday.
October 29th, 2020 at 6:13 PM ^
“The largest group of cardboard cutouts watching a football game anywhere in America today.”
October 29th, 2020 at 6:24 PM ^
Carl also confirmed it here on the MGoBoard a couple days ago.
October 29th, 2020 at 9:24 PM ^
Anyone remember that one Spring game where Grapentine had the hoarse voice? He sounded like Peter Brady going through puberty. Love the guy’s voice, but that day, had to crack a smile.
October 29th, 2020 at 6:18 PM ^
October 29th, 2020 at 6:36 PM ^
If I recall even the esteemed Dr Fauci attended sporting events (not social distanced I might add). Ridiculous that the band and some fans, social distanced, can't attend.
October 29th, 2020 at 7:17 PM ^
We had band and parents at all home HS football games here in Picktown; more silliness by Big Ten.
October 29th, 2020 at 6:28 PM ^
So why can't the band be in the stands and social distance? I'm sure I'm missing something.
October 29th, 2020 at 6:43 PM ^
I wonder how loud the band would be in an empty stadium?
October 29th, 2020 at 6:32 PM ^
Please Football's Valhalla - yes!
Go Blue!
October 29th, 2020 at 6:34 PM ^
I sure as hell hope so as well
October 29th, 2020 at 6:56 PM ^
Don’t know about the fight song but somehow someone will yell “down in front”, just to keep the good Ol tradition going ?
Go Blue!
October 29th, 2020 at 6:56 PM ^
Often
October 29th, 2020 at 7:59 PM ^
Big deal will frowning Mork cutouts be in the stadium somewhere?
October 29th, 2020 at 8:43 PM ^
Jesus. They will be exhausted.
October 29th, 2020 at 10:29 PM ^
The county still has the stay at home order for U of M students. Assuming the team gets an exception but probably not one for the band.
