I'm going to Ann Arbor to see the Ducks play Michigan

[dr.strangelove]

I am so excited. A business contact (whom I have directed a lot of work over the years) called me and offered me a surprise. He is a Michigan alum with great seats. To thank me for all the work I have sent his way, he is giving me two tickets to the Ducks at Michigan game. How long until September 8? I just have to pay for the flight out to Michigan and for the hotel, which will not be cheap, but how often will I get a chance to go to a game at Michigan. I doubt the Ducks will do another home and away with Michigan in my lifetime.

1. Green with jealousy

Yellow with envy.

Hope Dixon and/or Leaf get their acts together--and Bellotti starts running JStew up the middle a whoooole lot more.

2. That's cool....saw Washington play Mich at the Big House a few years ago

It's an intimidating venue. As I recall, game day attendance the day I was there was something like 110,800.

3. I can;t wait to see the stadium

I've been to the Rose Bowl (not for the big game though, just to see a regular season game) and the Big House holds nearly 5,000 more screaming fans. It will be a sight to see.

4. It is an awe-inspiring sight

We look forward to welcoming you to Ann Arbor! It's a wonderful town.

I have some hotel connections so PM me if you need assistance.

5. I was at that game!

The two UW fans who sat in front of us were the nicest opposing fans I have ever met. And it was a great, exciting game too.

6. You must have been there today...

How about those Ducks? Huge crowd, but not too happy with
their team two weeks in a row...U/O fan living in UCLA/USC land

7. Hey

That was a great game. The Ducks are looking good. I thought the loss to Cal was tough, since they played the ebst defense I've seen them put up in years. Two silly errors and a fumble cost them that game. I give teh BEars credit. They may be the ebst team in teh PAc-10 this year. I can;t wait for USC. I so want the ducks to beat the Trojans.
