One of the best things about getting older is getting more references.

Is that a Summer School quote?

I bet not. My guess is that the stage would be set up on North University with their backs to Rackham, similar to how they ran top of the park this summer, and the section with students would be between Chem and Kraus.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:51 PM ^
the construction between Burton and Rackham probably will have the Diag and Hatcher in the background
October 14th, 2015 at 1:37 PM ^
Aren't the students usually behind the stage? How else would you see them on TV?
October 14th, 2015 at 1:57 PM ^
Good point, maybe they'll be facing the construction and the students will be facing Hatcher.

Why dont they have it closer to the stadium?
October 14th, 2015 at 12:26 PM ^
There are not many good spots for such a set that are closer to the stadium. It's not that far anyway.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:24 PM ^
I vaguely remember that in 1997 the set was inside the stadium for the Ohio State game. I swear that Chris Fowler was talking to a bunch of us either before they went live or during a commercial break. But I may be wrong. Anyone else with a better memory than me recall that?
October 14th, 2015 at 12:30 PM ^
Game Day came to Ann Arbor one year for the OSU/UM game. They had the main set outside and then also one on the inside of the stadium, which, if I recall correctly, is where Lee put on the Brutus head.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:35 PM ^
That's funny - I thought I remembered being upset Gameday wasn't at the Ohio State game that year. I do remember that year Corso kept picking against us and at some point students throwing marshmallows at him during Gameday and the crew having to scramble to put up a net.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:39 PM ^
They went to FSU-UF in Gainesville because they'd already been in AA for Colorado and EL for Sparty games with UM. They were then at the Rose Bowl as well.
October 14th, 2015 at 1:04 PM ^
Thanks for this. I'm sad I can no longer remember these things.

They were inside the stadium a couple times--they were set up on the field in the corner with people sitting in the stands behind them.
ND '03 was on the golf course, they've been in that area next to the "Buffalo Lot," and also on the Crisler concourse overlooking the Blue Lot, too.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:36 PM ^
The set was south of the south endzone in the concourse area where many vendors are now. I vividly remember hitting Corso with a marshmallow when he put on the Buffalo head.
October 14th, 2015 at 1:55 PM ^
i was there and remember it well. i also remember chris fowler spending all his time between takes chatting up coeds.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:42 PM ^
I was definitely on TV well after the game ended with the Big House in the background. I can't recall if it was quite the same sort of Game Day as it is now, I wasn't there before the game.
Video or it didn't happen was lost somewhere in the early 2000s.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:51 PM ^
They set up on the North side of the stadium (student section corner) on the other side of the street in the lot there for one of the Ohio State games in the early 2000's - maybe the 100th game? But I think the problem is that, the lot now has stuff on it and any other lots are used for parking where they charge a lot of money, and get a lot of money, for people to park there. So they don't want to lose that by letting gameday setup there.
October 14th, 2015 at 1:07 PM ^
Yes, you are correct, I was at that GameDay
October 14th, 2015 at 2:41 PM ^
on an elevated covered stage as it still is. If you were to imagine it now, the location would have been off Main. Not sure how many times they visited that year. More than once. Each time, they came though the location moved, and Michigan I think bumped them off the stadium grounds to the golf course.
October 14th, 2015 at 7:21 PM ^
October 14th, 2015 at 12:23 PM ^
I figured it would be in that location. It's a good spot.
October 14th, 2015 at 12:24 PM ^
is this where it was last time?
October 14th, 2015 at 12:27 PM ^
October 14th, 2015 at 12:25 PM ^
Isnt it normally by Pioneer HS? i like this much better
