A Collegiate Themed Day

We all headed up to Michigan on Saturday to watch the Michigan/UMASS football game. This was our first time at the stadium, aka - The Big House - and it definitely held up to it's name.  Over 110,000 people can occupy the stadium and it was pretty much at capacity from what we could tell.

The fans, to say the least, were certainly dedicated to their team. I cannot recall a time in which I saw more yellow - even though they cheer on the team by saying "Go Blue!"

Hmmm...can you tell where the students were sitting?

To Dad's dissapointment, Michigan won 42 - 37

After the game, we drove up to Lansing to visit with Dad's side of the family. It's always a fun time with them and it had been a while since I'd see many of them. Since they are proud Spartans, they had the Michigan State/Notre Dame game on in the background. I must say, I'm not a huge fan of watching football on TV, but even this game was worth it. Go Green!
