Big Boy in the Big House
It looks like we get a Big Boy outpost in the Big House. Along with a statue. Is this better or worse than Brandon's Noodle?

Better as Big Boy will be an additional option for eating when watching a game at the Big House. I do not believe Kraft mac and cheese has ever been an option for consumption at games.

Yes. If they serve the food in the concourse then signage is fair game. I'll be watching to make sure none of that shit is near the playing surface. I have a feeling warde might keep those ugly Meijer patches on the side of the goal post covers like the spring game. Not the end of the world though. We're a long way away from Adam Silver and Rob Manfred levels of ad creep.

I'm fine with the restaurant but wish we didn't have to have the statue.
September 1st, 2023 at 10:12 PM ^
I wish it was just the traditional Big Boy statue. A SE Michigan icon.
September 1st, 2023 at 11:12 PM ^
I hear Braylon personally approved Big Boy getting the #1
September 1st, 2023 at 11:30 PM ^
Nah, I bet he has a beef over that.

I grew up in NE Michigan and also think it iconic. Why no love for (points left index finger to right edge of upper crease on right index finger) us way up here?

I thought that for a second as well, but then considered the color and decided that would suck in our stadium.

My slightly slimmer spittin' image. Handsome fella.
September 1st, 2023 at 10:24 PM ^
Why not a pattern of maize and blue checks?
September 1st, 2023 at 10:27 PM ^
Agreed! Or maybe they are going to repaint to match the uniforms the team is wearing each game...
September 1st, 2023 at 10:40 PM ^
That’s a Brady Hoke statue
September 2nd, 2023 at 9:17 AM ^
Oh that hair. I want that hair.

I thought this was going to be about Kenneth Grant getting some NIL money.
On second thought, maybe it is.
September 1st, 2023 at 10:16 PM ^
Is he a Brawny Lad?
September 1st, 2023 at 10:36 PM ^
Should've gone with the Harburgler.
September 1st, 2023 at 10:41 PM ^
I dont hate it. I wish they'd make his Michigan getup a little cooler looking though
September 2nd, 2023 at 2:27 AM ^
At the very least, Maize overall straps.
Maybe a Maize shirt and a blue "1"
Or as mentioned above Maize and Blue check overalls.
September 2nd, 2023 at 8:17 AM ^
The colors look off
September 1st, 2023 at 10:42 PM ^
Can you even conceive of the lines at that place?
September 1st, 2023 at 11:05 PM ^
I thought Big Boy went out of business?
September 1st, 2023 at 11:26 PM ^
Not yet, but I don't think they're too far off.
September 2nd, 2023 at 10:14 AM ^
They're on the downside of the chain. Which is sad. I'm trying to stockpile as much garlic and oil dressing from the salad bar as possible.
September 1st, 2023 at 11:53 PM ^
Where is the Big Red soda sponsorship? Maybe kick it off with a buy 2 get 2 free tickets.
September 2nd, 2023 at 12:58 AM ^
In Nebraska and/or Indiana

What caught my eye was ‘Michigan Sports Properties’. Quite a few folks feeding from that trough.

Fuck the freep

“We know many of the fans at Michigan Stadium are also longtime fans of Big Boy."
I can’t think of a single Michigan fan I’ve ever known going back to my freshman year in 1971 who has ever shown they give a flying fuck about Big Boy.
If Dave Brandon had done this MGoBlog would be in flames.
September 2nd, 2023 at 7:41 AM ^
Seconded.
September 2nd, 2023 at 10:16 AM ^
Uh me. The closing of the big boys on Washtenaw and north campus were sad days.
September 2nd, 2023 at 6:10 AM ^
I have no problem with that.
September 2nd, 2023 at 8:16 AM ^
We don't need a DJ either
September 2nd, 2023 at 8:37 AM ^
But what if it was DJ Big Boi? Packing phat beats and slim jims?
September 2nd, 2023 at 8:46 AM ^
Food wise, is that the best they could do?
September 2nd, 2023 at 10:17 AM ^
No joke, when big boy ran the concessions stands at the silverdome, the food was actually pretty good.
September 2nd, 2023 at 9:39 AM ^
They should have Trevor Keegan’s image with eye black on the Big Boy statue in overalls.
September 2nd, 2023 at 10:36 AM ^
Is it too much to ask that they at least get our damn colors right?
The blue is way off. Looks like Delaware’s colors.
(Sure, you’re in my stadium, but get off my lawn! LOL)

I don't want to see what the OSU fans do to that statue.
