2 Free tickets to No. Illinois
So I have 4 tickets given to me in the south end zone, up high. Two are going to my son and two can go to some lucky deserving fans. Short notice I know, but I will do some sort of random draw ( paper names in a hat). The only requirements are that you not be some wacko, MGoLunatic Fringer determined by a 30 sec perusal of your posting history. I will probably leave them at will call (NE entrance to Crisler) unless you’re at a tailgate at 9am (I’m In the Stadium at 9:30). Will choose today at about 1pm.
I hope my buddy robF can hook me up with your email. Otherwise I’ll post my burner email at 2pm

Throw my name in the hat. I would greatly appreciate it!!
Thanks
Go Blue!!

Folks on MGo aren't wackos, we're just...
JK I'm mad crazy but I'll be watching from the comfy confines of my straitjacket. Have fun!
September 17th, 2021 at 10:00 AM ^
This is basically for my son’s sake.. You rarely get to pick your neighbors out of 100,000 so why not.. He is a fairly docile M engineering grad who happens to love M football( former MGoBlog poster).

I would love to take my son, so please throw my name in there. Thanks for the generosity (Even if I don't win them)!
September 17th, 2021 at 10:18 AM ^
I can’t make it this weekend so no tickets for me. Just wanted to say I appreciate your generosity.
September 17th, 2021 at 10:36 AM ^
Id throw my name in but you said no crazies so I guess I'm out
September 17th, 2021 at 10:50 AM ^
Count me in, I would love to take my daughter. Thanks for your generous offer!
Go Blue
September 17th, 2021 at 10:52 AM ^
Very thoughtful of you, Scanner Blue!
I'll be there tomorrow in Section 44...as usual.
September 17th, 2021 at 11:10 AM ^
This is very cool. If I didn't have meetings today and tomorrow, I would have entered to drive up from TN w/my son. He's never been to the Big House, and it's a bucket list sort of thing for us. One of these days, though. Thanks for doing this, and I hope whoever gets them has a great time!
September 17th, 2021 at 11:17 AM ^
This isn't the best place to ask this question but here goes.. I'm looking to buy 2 tickets to the game at Wisconsin. Any recommendations outside of stubhub, etc..? This site used to reference Ticketiq and I've checked there and prices seem reasonable. Still, can't hurt to ask.
Also, this will be my first time in Madison. Open to all food/drink recommendations. Thanks.

Facebook marketplace was a good place for me when I bought second hand tickets a few years ago.
September 17th, 2021 at 11:22 AM ^
Really cool of you to give 2 of these away. Im over in the Cincinnati area but wouldnt mind driving up for a game with my son.
September 17th, 2021 at 11:58 AM ^
Count me in, no plans this weekend and the gf has never been to the Big House *crosses fingers*
September 17th, 2021 at 2:08 PM ^
Scannerblue picked you for my tix righteouschops!
I can transfer the tix electronically to you - please send me your email or phone number to: [email protected]
September 17th, 2021 at 2:20 PM ^
Just sent you an email from adam****@gmail.com
September 17th, 2021 at 12:02 PM ^
FYI RobF cannot hook you up with their email since that would be a violation of our policy. We do not share those unless they email us and say it's okay. The best we can do is email them separately and give them your email if you expressly give us permission.
September 17th, 2021 at 1:27 PM ^
Got it Seth. You might be getting an email from me later.
September 17th, 2021 at 12:12 PM ^
My posting history is immaculate.
Alas, I am not interested in your free tickets.
September 17th, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
I do not have enough points to start a thread, but I would like to give my tickets away to someone that could use them. The seats are for me and my two sons (8 and 11) - so ideally i'd like to donate them to a father that will enjoy them with his kids. I actually get more enjoyment out of watching my boys enjoy the game/experience more than anything. Yeah - i'm getting OLD.
Section 11, Row 54, Seats 10-12 (Seats are padded and on the aisle).
September 17th, 2021 at 12:36 PM ^
I would love them! I was only thinking about taking my son but if there was a 3rd ticket I would take one of my daughters. Son is 11 and daughters are 8, 14, & 15. Oldest daughter has a soccer game so I would probably take the 14 yr old. I don't know if this helps me or hurts me in this matter, but we are from Ohio so it is nice to get away from these idiot fans for a Saturday. Go Blue!

They are yours! We live just outside of Cleveland, so I know what you mean. Last week we left the house at 8am, parked by 1015 to tailgate. Pulled into our driveway about 230am. Was a very long day, but absolutely worth it. My boys loved every second of it. Memories that will last forever.
Do you have a burner email I can send info to?
September 17th, 2021 at 12:56 PM ^
This is awesome! I cannot wait to surprise my kids when they get home. [email protected].
Thank you so much!
September 17th, 2021 at 12:58 PM ^
Sent you an email - let me know if you did not get it.
September 17th, 2021 at 1:04 PM ^
I got it and just replied to it. Thanks again for this!
September 17th, 2021 at 12:46 PM ^
I've also got 2 tix available - Section 11, Row 29 - electronic so easy to transfer.
Scanner Blue - want to draw from your hat 2x and let me know who to get an email or phone # from to transfer?
September 17th, 2021 at 1:34 PM ^
I’ll try my best LBJ check back in an hour or two
September 17th, 2021 at 2:12 PM ^
This awesome, count me as interested!
September 17th, 2021 at 2:26 PM ^
massimo - there's a chance my tix will be available next week too....
September 17th, 2021 at 2:41 PM ^
Thanks, we are free for that game as well!
September 17th, 2021 at 7:50 PM ^
Throwing my hat in the ring ?
September 17th, 2021 at 12:48 PM ^
I don't want the tickets.
But, I am intrigued by this comment "The only requirements are that you not be some wacko, MGoLunatic Fringer determined by a 30 sec perusal of your posting history. "
Do I pass muster? Maybe not.
Your gesture is very generous, but in an oddly unfriendly and judgmental way, in my opinion. But, this is the internet and you don't know us. I get the initial feeling you have.
Chances are, though, whoever you pick from here is probably an okay person to sit near for 3 hours. Our season tickets are next to a guy who has been loud an obnoxious sometimes. He really bothered me when we first got season tickets years ago. Slowly, we have gotten to know his wife and him over the years. He's just really outwardly passionate about football and mellow about most other things. When we came back for this season, we all caught up on how the kids were doing, etc. and it was great. He has mellowed a bit as he has gotten older... and maybe getting to know him made him less annoying.
Anyway, I guess my thought is that I think your son and the random Michigan fan form this board will enjoy themselves in person.... as long as there isn't any surprise on the scoreboard!
September 17th, 2021 at 1:41 PM ^
Not really serious Pete I barely have time to try to get names, emails etc. but maybe that one dude who was adamant about replacing Beilein after a loss to OSU would be left out.
September 17th, 2021 at 4:26 PM ^
We only make snap judgments around here, treetops!
September 17th, 2021 at 9:10 PM ^
I’m glad I’m not the only one who saw that Pete K was back and immediately thought of him fighting valiantly on behalf of the fratastic hotel destroyers.
September 17th, 2021 at 12:52 PM ^
If not too late I’d love a shot at free tickets. Got a son that would love to go. Thanks for the opportunity.
September 17th, 2021 at 12:54 PM ^
Just bought my tickets this morning for myself but I do have a client I just wrote (Im and insurance guy) that is a big Michigan fan and his son has double kidney failure and they have never been to a game. Seem like very nice people. If you consider throwing them in the hat it would be much appreciated. My email is [email protected] if you have any questions. Go Blue!
September 17th, 2021 at 1:48 PM ^
BleedinBlue won mine and righteouschops was the winner for the DowtownLJB tickets.
my e-mail that I haven’t used since giving tickets away in W . Lafayette is [email protected].
Hope this works.
September 17th, 2021 at 1:55 PM ^
Awesome!!! I will email you on that one. if it doesnt work my burner email would be [email protected]
September 17th, 2021 at 2:05 PM ^
Nice! Do I email you or do you have an email for DowtownLJB?
September 17th, 2021 at 2:10 PM ^
thanks scanner blue!
righteouschops: I posted above - please email me :)
September 17th, 2021 at 3:10 PM ^
Thank you so much!

Last minute change of plans for my weekend. I have 4 tickets available as well for this game. These are my season tickets with cushion seats in SE corner. First to reply, you can have them. Just can't be an asshole, because I sit around a bunch of wonderful people.
