OT: I'm Shmacked - Vote for UM
Ladies and Gents, there has been a facebook vote going around for I'm Shmacked. For those of you who don't know what it is by now, you'll probably hate it. Nonetheless, it is a crew that goes around and makes videos about social life on college campuses. The vote is between us and Penn State. The winner will have I'm Shmacked come in during welcome week and film the awesomeness that takes place on campus. They will go around to frat parties, bars, campus landmarks, etc. and actually do a damn good job of putting together a video. I don't know how to embed but you can check this one out from last year http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwXvJM-tvr4
Anyway, I know the MGoCommunity loves polls. Moreover, I know this community loves shooting us up from 2nd to 1st, and that is what we're in need of. We've been down a solid 60 votes for quite some time and I know this blog has the capability of putting us over the top. If you have any interest in seeing what us degenerate students do on campus before classes commence, please take 5 seconds out of your day and vote. https://www.facebook.com/questions/250546221715441/
How is this relevant to recruiting you ask? High school kids love parties. Not all, but most. When they go to youtube and see a raging social scene on campus, it can be that one confirmation they were looking for which was unavailable during a summer visit. So if you guys want Su'a to flip from USC and Scarbrough to shock the world, vote.
Seeing all of that and thinking about that I've been out of college for years won't piss me off at all.....
Perfect! Sounds like I earned your vote
Penn State is probably going to turn into a pretty crazy party school. I mean their basketball team has always been awful and their football team is about to be even worse, so they'll all just turn to alcohol to feel better.
Turn in to?! Sorry man I don't know how old you are but they've been one of the top party schools the past 5-7 years at least
I can definitely see how many on the blog may not like the Im Shmacked videos, personally though I love 'em. I voted. Too bad I have to be out of town for welcome week to get observational hours in...
You should write - Vote for UM in the title. Might get more clicks if you do.
Wise man you are
Moreso than getting this on campus, I don't want to lose to Penn State. At anything. Ever again. MOAR votes

Only 25 votes behind them. Surely we can close that gap.
Would it be weird to come in a day early to relive glory days with my soon to be brother-in-law who is a current student? Probably.
Will I do it anyway? Let's be honest, only if the fiance gives me permission (so no).
Also, I voted.
It's more like Pre-gaming with Pat or Why After 18 Years in Ann Arbor I Went Out of State to a School Without Fraternities or a Football Team.
Ugghhh. I’m much too young to disapprove of this. And yet...
I don't really have a problem with the parties. I partook in them and even hosted a few. I'm just not a big fan of them in being publically visible in any aspect. A wise man keeps certain aspects of life off Facebook, Youtube, whereever these episodes end up. I also have no interest in recruiting undergrads based solely on the parties. When I came here I assumed Michigan, like any large land grant school, would have a party scene. If you care enough about parties to go beyond that, this is not the school for you. Plus the warm weather schools always have and always will kick our ass on the party scene. When you can booze it up on the beach in Florida 9 months out of the year whereas we have snow on the ground 7 months out of the year, the warm weather wins.
Trying to recruit some film crew to come here and film drunk undergrads seems to move more in the direction of MSU paying The Situation to show up on campus.
Baiscally I know what you degenerate students do during welcome week. Only back in my day undergrads were smart enough not to make videos that might provoke a potential crackdown by the admins.
Or maybe there was no Youtube, no camera phones, and no money to be made in social media. I'll get off your lawn now.
Yeah, we just to have to go to some shithole called Ebaums World for our funny videos. It was rough.
Especially since that asshole stole everything he hosted
So much win for Mr. jasputan

I am 4 years out of college and I dont get this video at all/whats the point? People drinking, people drunk, gamedays, drinking, girls, bros....its....college?? Evidently they've discovered #4 on the internet meme though: profit.

Already voted and hope we win, but can't see us beating PSU. What else do they have to live after after all these days?
I'm Schmacked kinda sucks unfortunately. Pregaming with Pat had better party footage and it was a joke haha I'm Schmacked just needs to pick better frats to pregame with, and explore the campus more (basing this on their previous UMich vid)
