Concessions you get at The Big House?

Two hot dogs for me. Every game before it starts.

I also get a water to keep the vocal chords oiled at halftime when I usually have already lost some of my voice.

10 years ago, when I was in school, we had the legendary hot dog man in the student section. In the third quarter he would start riling the crowd up and throw about 5-10 hot dogs out to the crowd based on the loudest cheers. Then they decided to boot him and banned him. His acts of selfless courage will never be forgotten. #NeverForget

when I came back to a game after graduation.  He was amazing. Everytime I thought it was done, BAM, another hot dog. Michigan really missed out on a chance there to make him official "Hot Dog Guy", and sponser him with the 5-10 hotdogs. It would have been a great weird 3rd Q student section tradition.  I never understood why they threw him out.

Are there still Wiard's Orchard stands? For years I got a bag of donuts and a jug of cider from them, every game. Cheap, delicious, filling. Only downside was that there would occasionally be a sugar crash around the fourth quarter, and if the game was not an easy win it added to the nerves. "Enhanced" excitement, you might say.

There's one stand located at the opposite endzoze from my seats.  It's quite the challenege to watch the band perform at halftime and make it back before part of the third quarter is gone.  

More corn dog stands please! ...or at least a jetpack to speed up the commute.

I have never purchased a single thing from the concession stand at the Big House. Rarely leave my seat once the game starts.

To this day that was the closest I ever came to NOT going to a sporting event due to weather. Tailgating in freezing rain....if it would have only been 3-4 degrees colder it would have been snow and improved game experience by about 1000%!

Love your EUTM for all things Michigan.

Only an asshole would downvote you just for saying you were at a game 10 years ago.

Don't ever let it get to you.

Haters gonna hate.

PS - 15 days! I remember when I was your age and how jacked I used to get for games. Still love the games, theyve just taken a back seat to other priorities. Enjoy the season. It's gonna be fun!

I couldn't get warm until I finally got in bed that night.

Also went to Happy Valley for my 21st that year. Fans treated me like absolute trash for wearing a Michigan jersey and walking down the street. They were pretty flipping quiet after the game.

Nothing. It's also bullshit you can't bring in water bottles because there are not nearly enough water stations.

MY wife and I share a Pepsi, I have two hot dogs and she has a pretzel with mustard. At half time, it's a bottle of water for me and a lemon shake up for her.

If it's a colder game I get the big souvenir coffee. If it's a hot game I may not get anything. But I've gotten a souvenir coffee or pop cup the last 5 years so I have to keep that going. I can get them at hockey too though. Usually make it to a couple of those a year as well. Wish I lived closer.

Nothing. I walk to my seat and take everything in. The only time I get up is to piss because I'm so damn nervous. Or because of all the beer I drank at the tailgate

I don't typically buy anything at the stadium unless the kids are with me, in which case avoiding in-game snacks seems virtuall impossible. In those cases, at most some popcorn or a hot dog and a soda, but we try to eat either before or after games typically, or at tailgates if we hit those up.

Water from the nice church ladies on the walk up, hot dog at halftime, turkey sAndwich and an apple in the car after the game.

Never buy anything. Get to my seat and don't leave until the game is over. Eat before the game and then after the game I sit in my car and eat a sandwich while I wait for traffic to clear out a little.
