Whoo hoo...

My little brother called & asked if we wanted to see Michigan vs. San Diego State (the team that Brady Hoke used to coach). We're a ways from Ann Arbor, but our kids had never been to a Michigan game so my husband agreed to go! I didn't take my good camera as you can't take bags into the stadium (even purses!) so I wasn't going to chance a downpour (even if it is an old camera!) So the photos were my 10 yr old daughter's responsibility.

The U of M Graduates are SERIOUS tailgaters...

Like quite serious...

The stadium update was quite nice..even if the photos don't do it justice:

We didn't get a lot of photos; the band was fun to watch...

And it's always fun to be with 110,000 people in a stadium!

And we got to watch a little football...the jury is still out on the jumbotrons, but they did help keep your interest during "media breaks"...

We always like to see our Wolverines in the end zone making that touchdown!

The final score was 28-7...Michigan didn't play as well as I would have liked...they've got some tough competition coming up.   Hard to believe it's probably been 25 yrs since I've last been in Michigan Stadium.
The seats were definitely better than student seats! It was a fun day with lots of driving...but that's old hat to us. In conclusion for your viewing pleasure; the Michigan Fight Song:

Hail to the victors valiant
Hail to our conquering heroes
Hail, hail to Michigan
The leaders and best...

Hail to the victors vailiant
Hall to our conquering herores
Hail, hail to Michigan
The leaders of the West!
Go Blue!
