Cool New Drone Video Shows New Endzones, U-M Campus
Here's something cool for a sloooow sports day. This online publication here in Livingston County just posted a cool new high-quality drone video of the U-M campus and the Big House. It was shot this week and gives a great flyover view of what the new endzones look like, and has some great footage of central campus, too.
The link is here.
As Steve Irwin said on more than one occasion, "Crikey! Have a look at this little beauty"
I very much enjoyed the musical accompaniment
Reminds me of this episode of Seinfeld. Just replace the baby for the helmet.
oh geez, above comment was for the helmet vid thread and not this thread. Where the hell is the edit button?!?!?
Nice fly-by... Always good to see the Big House!
About to cry. Excellent production. I need to get back to the campus. Miss is so gd much!
I noticed the other day while driving on Stadium that the new practice field is done and also has the blue endzones. Beautiful
Haven't heard our fight song or seen campus in a while - video gave me goosebumps. Thanks.
Uh, this is awkward, there might be people who never knew there were other words to The Victors, despite being basically fanatic about their alma mater. Anyone have a good source for the lyrics and tune so someone can learn it and be a better person? Asking for a friend...
Man, I love the U-M Glee Club's singing. OK, here's what I found online for the FULL lyrics of "The Victors." I assume this is what they're singing!
Now for a cheer they are here, triumphant!
Here they come with banners flying,
In stalwart step they're nighing,
With shouts of vict'ry crying,
We hurrah, hurrah, we greet you now,
Hail!
Far we their praises sing
For the glory and fame they've bro't us
Loud let the bells them ring
For here they come with banners flying
Far we their praises tell
For the glory and fame they've bro't us
Loud let the bells them ring
For here they come with banners flying
Here they come, Hurrah!
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail! to the conqu'ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan
the leaders and best
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail! to the conqu'ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan,
the champions of the West!
We cheer them again
We cheer and cheer again
For Michigan, we cheer for Michigan
We cheer with might and main
We cheer, cheer, cheer
With might and main we cheer!
Hail! to the victors valiant
Hail! to the conqu'ring heroes
Hail! Hail! to Michigan,
the champions of the West!
Trying an embed for the board...
So toggling to the source code option and pasting the iframe code from YouTube didn't work. Also, pasting the URL into the "Insert Media Embed" option returned a message saying "Failed to fetch content for the given URL."
Is the inability to embed YouTube videos on the board a known bug?
I went to movie night last Saturday, skipped the movie but toured the locker room and walked on the field. The new field looks great, and the blue endzones are fantastic. What really surprised me was how cushy the field was with all of the rubber bits embedded in the turf.
Can't wait to see Michigan running into those beautiful blue endzones about 9 times on September 8th!
Here's a couple pictures I took.
That is a beautiful site to behold. Love the Big House. I like the new endzones too.
sight. whatever.
Glad they got rid of the alternating shade of green Ohio Stadium looking five yard strips.
Great video...who wants to start a barbershop quartet with me?
Yay - there should finally be a few new shots in hype videos for a change! Also, something probably got in my eye...
