Rutgers visiting section
From poking around online I gathered that the lower deck visiting fans' section in Rutgers' stadium might be 112 or 113. I called Rutgers' box office and the guy there said it's 112. However, he didn't seem to know what he was talking about. Anyone know what it actually is?

Rutgers wants to be Ohio State. Illinois is far more likely.

Nobody wants to be Ohio State out there. Nobody outside of crappy Paramus cares about college football out there. Nobody can find Michigan on a map out there.
The last time anyone at Rutgers thought about Michigan was in '89, and they were happy because Seton Hall lost.
Oh wait. I forgot. They thought about Michigan in 2014.
September 20th, 2016 at 10:42 AM ^
at least down on the Shore. You might see one or two red R decals in windows, but in Jersey they love the Jets and Giants.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:09 AM ^
They haven't cared about college football out there since Army in the '40s.
And even that, I'm guessing.
It might've been never.

One year we played Rutgers in the NIT and they printed up "Beat Michigan" t-shirts. For an NIT game.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:43 AM ^
I'm surprised the shirts didn't say "Beat Michigan State."
They have a loose idea of the Big 10 out there.
To the New Jerseyan, the Midwest is more of a concept than it is an actual place.
September 20th, 2016 at 10:31 AM ^
You sound sure about that.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:12 AM ^
The state of Michigan reminds me a lot of New Jersey.
September 20th, 2016 at 12:01 PM ^
Have you ever been to Michigan or New Jersey?
September 20th, 2016 at 12:40 PM ^
Have you?
September 20th, 2016 at 1:32 PM ^
Yeah down voted you. Michigan is a state where they care about college football, Jersey is not. Michigan is a state full of very nice people, Jersey is not. Michigan has no equivalent to Jersey Shore paesan, meatBall, GTL types. Michigan has gorgeous areas especially up North, Jersey is a giant parking lot. Jersey is unique. No other stat is like it. You could say there are a lot of states like Michigan in terms of kind people, beautiful scenery, culture like Minnesota, Indiana, etc. But Michigan is better than all of them.

Michiganders can get a little edgy. Ever try to take the open lane in a merge? (LEARN THE ZIPPER METHOD, PLEASE.)
Yes, Michiganders, like Jerseyans, drive like maniacs, more than anyone in any other state I’ve visited.
And there’s Detroit. And there’s Newark. And there's Dearborn. And there's Jersey City. And there's Flint. And there's Camden.
Great schools. Michigan has Michigan & State. New Jersey has Rutgers and Princeton.
Great football in Ann Arbor. Great football in East Rutherford. Bad football in Detroit. Bad football in Piscataway.
No guidos in Michigan. (No guidos anywhere else.) But Eminem and Kid Rock and Jack White would do just fine in NJ. …
Michigan has gorgeous areas up north. Jersey has gorgeous areas up north (black bear country and Appalachian Trail), down south (Pine Barrens), out east (Atlantic coastline) and in the west (horse country & Delaware River).
And it’s not nicknamed the Garden State because it’s a “giant parking lot.” Michigan is proud of their cherries. The same way Jersey is with their tomatoes.
Coney Dogs in Michigan. Texas Weiners in North Jersey. (They're the same thing.)
Lots of similarities. You assume I was being negative. You'll understand soon enough. Rutgers is in the Big Ten -- We're family now!

...to see there. The more one looks at it, the more "win" that one notices.
September 20th, 2016 at 10:23 AM ^
dude, he's like every second or third guy you see in Jersey. Have you ever taken a look at their Governor?? Leave your "hope" in a secure locker at Newark Airport. Just watch the game and don't get too cute.
September 20th, 2016 at 10:43 AM ^
the governor's in jail.
September 20th, 2016 at 10:54 AM ^
September 20th, 2016 at 12:30 PM ^
Gov. Christie didn't go to State U.
He went to Delaware.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:05 AM ^
He's not in jail. If Trump wins, he's the fucking Attorney General. Badda boom, badda bing.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:23 AM ^
Sounds like it is not going away.
Giuliani could end up with the job if Trump wins.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:45 AM ^
Yes. Of course. That'd be good for America, too.
September 20th, 2016 at 10:31 AM ^
September 20th, 2016 at 1:04 PM ^
All the more reason to make sure the OP gets their question answered. I definitely wouldn't want to end up next to this guy.
September 20th, 2016 at 8:36 AM ^
Hopefully nobody is wearing blue, especially if you are in a black stripe section. Blue will not make you stand out and show how many Michigan fans are there. You wear maize to this game, it stands out against black and red.
Shocks me that fans don't think about this. I was shocked how many ND fans were wearing green for their game against MSU...
September 20th, 2016 at 9:18 AM ^
I wear the season t-shirt to every game.
By the way, we ordered our tickets thru the Michigan ticket office when I renewed my season tickets...and we are in section 209. It's not a big deal either way, but does anyone know if that is one of the away sections?

Jersey is no place for children, man. Be safe.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:24 AM ^
"Never trust anybody from New Jersey"
September 20th, 2016 at 11:46 AM ^
That's right.
Or anyone with "Jersey" in their nickname. Or anyone from New Jersey with a nickname.

But do, please, let the kind, elderly usher in the scarlet blazer guide you to your row.
Tip him, too. They're old-fashioned out there.
September 20th, 2016 at 6:15 AM ^
Just a heads up, make sure your seats are the opposite end of the cannon.
September 20th, 2016 at 8:02 AM ^
Don't have to worry about sitting near the cannon. Rutgers only fires it when they score.
September 20th, 2016 at 8:07 AM ^
For us they may fire it after every successful kickoff reception that isn't dropped or fumbled.
September 20th, 2016 at 12:50 PM ^
Or after every hard hit. Isn't that all that really matters?
September 20th, 2016 at 10:19 AM ^
Like when they beat Michigan 2 years ago.
September 20th, 2016 at 1:30 PM ^
But don't stick your head in it for a selfie. Just in case.
September 20th, 2016 at 6:35 AM ^
September 20th, 2016 at 10:17 AM ^
Yeah, definitely. Go push around a bunch of Jersey psychopaths. Make sure you press your fingers in their chests reeeeeeeaaaaaaal hard. And yes, please, refer to them as "folks." As loudly as possible.
Text me your selfies afterward from the ER.
