I thought they announced a few days ago, that they would be closed for Saturday.
October 11th, 2018 at 10:24 AM ^
They clarified that statement afterwards saying that all reservations have been cancelled/refunded since the status is up in the air and they cannot promise those reserved spots. I'm guessing the decision won't be made until gameday.
I say plan for the golf course to be open, but also plan for the golf course to be closed.

Ah, yes. Schrodinger's golf course.
October 11th, 2018 at 11:15 AM ^
Severely underrated comment, IMO.
October 11th, 2018 at 9:40 AM ^
They announce earlier in the week it was going to be closed, and to make other arrangements.
October 11th, 2018 at 9:48 AM ^
Mgoblue says they are still opening at noon. Just want them to announce for certain one way or another earlier than Saturday morning.

As I also got the e-mail about AAG&O several days ago, I have to think that the site simply was not updated to show the updated information. That said, I thought the official, final word was to be communicated today, so we shall see, I guess.

UofM Golf course might be open. I’d be surprised if AAGO was.
Edit: Also, let’s all be careful not to say anything mean about AAGO or they’ll have Ira Mark create a username to come argue with us.
Edit 2: never mind, Bando will do it for him.

AAGO sent us members an email on Monday to make arrangements for potential close, but they were not going to make it official until today.
With not as rainfall as anticipated, windy day today, no further rain and 3 weeks after Saturday to repair the course, frankly I would be pretty disappointed if they were closed this weekend.
October 11th, 2018 at 9:56 AM ^
AAGO is open for members, but not others, at least according to a friend who will be parking there on Saturday...
October 11th, 2018 at 10:01 AM ^
I really don't think that the U-M course will be closed on Saturday.

Oct. 13 Night Game vs. Wisconsin
All University of Michigan game day parking lots, both permit and public, will open at noon for the Wisconsin game (7:30 p.m. kickoff). The U-M Golf Course, Pioneer High School and Ann Arbor Golf & Outing will also open to the public at noon.

Just called the AAGO and the pre-recorded message is still saying that it is only open for members, season pass holders and Parknparty ticket holders. I don't know if that will change but if you want to check as game time gets closer the number is 734-663-4044 and press 6. Having said this, the recording mentions the Maryland game???
October 11th, 2018 at 10:16 AM ^
I drove by the golf course this morning, it's still there.
October 11th, 2018 at 10:54 AM ^
Why were you following me?
October 11th, 2018 at 1:27 PM ^
I hope that was not you I cut off, fix your headlight!!
October 11th, 2018 at 11:03 AM ^
Just another move by everyone involved at Michigan that hates night games. It will be open. But they are hoping people make other arrangements so it is not a blood bath of drinking on the course.
October 11th, 2018 at 11:25 AM ^
Or they have legitimate concerns about the condition of their golf course after heavy rainfall.
October 11th, 2018 at 5:15 PM ^
Conditions are subpar...
