I didnt know Dolph Lundgren's son went to Michigan?!?!?
September 11th, 2011 at 1:44 AM ^
Pretty awesome, right?

Sunshine from "Remember the Titans"... Should we call him "Dolph Sunshine"?
September 11th, 2011 at 7:40 PM ^
Here I am with my new pal. I don't remember his name but I'm sure the MGoCommunity can help me come up with one, especially since he got so much face(palm) time!

This guy needs his own t-shirt

More importantly, somebody needs to turn this into a GIF.

can someone sum up the post-game? I was not in attendance but it got some serious play/recognition on ESPN and made us look great because stadium was packed during whatever festivities occurred...
September 11th, 2011 at 1:40 AM ^
In the student section, we couldn't leave because we were in shock. I was literally standing with my hands on my head for about 15 minutes. Then I walked home in shock. Amazing atmosphere.

Most of the Stadium was still full long after the game. I'm sure Brian will mention it and capture it better, but weall just wanted to be there and keep being there. All the good wasn't gone yet.
(To get a bit purple,) Kind of like the fog that started coming in after halftime that by the end was almost a haze.
Most of the students stayed for a postgame show that lasted until a quarter past midnight or later. This included a victory lap/on field interview for Denard.
By then lt sounded like even the announcer was caught up in it a little more than usual.
September 11th, 2011 at 3:55 AM ^
Out of the stadium too was pretty wild, by far the rowdiest I've ever seen a crowd leaving the stadium, I could hear people cheering and chanting from blocks away all the way home.
September 11th, 2011 at 1:37 AM ^
gallon, god, good!!!!
September 11th, 2011 at 1:39 AM ^
Don't forget the tribute to Desmond! I love how the way they chose to honor him. And what I love even more is that the first night he wore the "retired" 21 Hemingway averaged 55 yards a catch on 3 catches!
September 11th, 2011 at 12:54 PM ^
I love this idea. Keep the number in circulation but make sure everyone knows its history. Really original. I'd bet other schools will copy us.
September 11th, 2011 at 1:39 AM ^
would be great to get a full breakdown/highlights of the UTL pre-game, halftime and post-game. legendary night. i want to know what it was like to be there.
September 11th, 2011 at 1:48 AM ^
I walked all over halifax in AA. The houses were partying awesome but clean. The town was sparkling and there was maize everywhere. The clouds moved out and the weather was perfection. It was a great night for Ann Arbor, as well. Hell, for the whole state of Michigan.
September 11th, 2011 at 1:49 AM ^
By half time I was regreting flying in from Vegas but by the end of the game I was hugging, screaming and high fiving people around me. I sat at the corner of the end zone where the last TD was made. When the game was over it seemed like no one was leaving ( except the ND fans) for a good 20 minutes cheering and singing. Great night and positive national exposure!
September 11th, 2011 at 2:00 AM ^
One word: loud
The grey-hairs must have been pulling them out, because eminem, zombie nation, dynamite, hundred nation army, and yes pop evil...blasted LOUD, like, testing the limits of the speakers loud. Then when the music died down, the CROWD was loud...stood like the whole game...then after the game they blasted more music...and no one wanted to leave. It was new and it was diferrent but darned if it didn't help Michigan win. The Desmond tribute was fantastic...21 will wear a hall of fame patch forever...21's locker will be pimped out to honor Desmond forever...Desmond's speach was awesome, talked about how the university...from cottage inn to the cube to south quad and the diag made him the man he is today. He teared up. So did I.
September 11th, 2011 at 6:40 AM ^
Given that it was 11:30 and by the end we were all exhausted, I was amazed how uniformly and willingly people stood up, olds and all.
September 11th, 2011 at 1:57 AM ^
Everything was perfect except those mother effing ads for the facebook pages. I think Dave Brandon masturbates to that crap.
September 11th, 2011 at 2:07 AM ^
This will go down as not only the best game in MIchigan football history, but possibly college football history.
September 11th, 2011 at 2:13 AM ^
That's false, and a completely ridiculous thing to say.
September 11th, 2011 at 2:24 AM ^
But hell for a weekend I'll take it haha
September 11th, 2011 at 3:12 AM ^
FINISH, not game.
September 11th, 2011 at 2:36 AM ^
Best of the decade? Possibly. Best of history? If we were #1 and #2, then definitely. But we're not so...
September 11th, 2011 at 2:31 AM ^
Enough said.
September 11th, 2011 at 2:40 AM ^
There was an extremely high quantity of hotties in night jerseys out today. It made AA look great.
Except for the one in a 2007 season schedule shirt. Seriously... I don't care how hot you are, when you remind me of The Horror, I'm going to run the other way.
September 11th, 2011 at 2:51 AM ^
Who is the blonde guy in the "Big House Football" shirt with the 80's hair and the goatee in the back of the Hoke interview? That's a lot of hair!
September 11th, 2011 at 2:54 AM ^
Michigan great and former NFL vet Steve Everitt. Guy marches to his own drummer, in a totally awesome way.
September 11th, 2011 at 3:22 AM ^
Thanks for the info. I learned something new about Michigan today.
September 11th, 2011 at 3:01 AM ^
Desmond had a touching speech before the game I thought. Youre right everything was perfect.
September 11th, 2011 at 3:44 AM ^
It didn't happen. Things really ran smoothly. The day was freakishly perfect. Incoming traffic was so widely dispersed, nobody had much of a problem. Exiting traffic was so deleriously happy, nobody cared. And in fact, this was not as bad as MSU last year.
I was wrong. This unbelievable game has guaranteed another night game.
Brandon was really happy. I saw Bill Martin and he was too. Oh, and, uh Shane Morris was reeeeeaalllyy happy.
September 11th, 2011 at 3:54 AM ^
9/11 tribute to the alums was perfect.
Teared up on that one.
AMERICA!
September 11th, 2011 at 4:17 AM ^
The entire stadium singing God Bless America was one of the most moving things I have ever been apart of.
September 11th, 2011 at 4:53 AM ^
I don't know if I've ever missed Ann Arbor more than I did today
September 11th, 2011 at 8:55 AM ^
I will admit, I got choked up with joy, watching one of the most exciting games in Michigan history, and seeing the atmosphere first hand after the game is something I will take to the grave with me.
September 11th, 2011 at 10:11 AM ^
Definitely one of the best games I have attended and by far THE BEST crowd atmosphere I have ever witnessed!
If any of the recruits at the game were "on the fence," I think we now know where they stand!
So fortunate to have attended!
September 11th, 2011 at 12:57 PM ^
Don't forget the halftime show with the two guys parachuting into the stadium (at night!). That was awesome.
