6. Game weekends are a pain, but Michigan is insane |
|
you're right, I wanted a normal weekend in Columbus.
Fans come who don't have tickets and cruise the campus area and pack the bars to watch so they can be "close to" game. I guess after 15 years of living in Columbus, we know pretty well what to expect.
:hug: for tomorrow, my friend.

I would imagine that Michigan at Ohio State is a lot like Packers at Vikings...

If it's a noon game, it won't be as bad. The later the game, the more people drink before the game, the wilder it gets.

5. Packed restaurants and bars |
|
and 100,000 extra people in the city. It's not pretty.

it's tradition and the stadium will be sold out.
Sorry it won't be a game though. It makes the insanity worth it. :(

The bar that Sallymander and all of us were meeting at is just south of campus. Lelapin's living essentially on campus. Hard to avoid and I'm staying with her at least part of the weekend. Oh well. Could be worse. ;)
