I suspect the answer is "everywhere," but when I looked online yesterday, I read that the visiting fans normally sit in 107, 108, 207, and 208. I'll be in 106, personally.
October 7th, 2019 at 1:05 PM ^
Also 109 and 110.
October 7th, 2019 at 1:08 PM ^
Yep. We ordered ours with our season tickets back in the spring and we're sitting in section 109.
October 7th, 2019 at 12:33 PM ^
We'll be in 125
October 7th, 2019 at 12:34 PM ^

Is it true that you can actually smell the manure from the surrounding fields in their stadium?
October 7th, 2019 at 1:38 PM ^
No, it is not true. There are few cows, and they are the Vet school's. Farmland is all corn and soy beans.
October 7th, 2019 at 2:31 PM ^
You are thinking of Slap Happy Valley.
October 7th, 2019 at 4:43 PM ^
It's actually the pig farm that's ~1/2 mile due south of the stadium. Whether or not you smell it is highly dependent on the winds. I used to live ~2 miles from there and could smell it quite frequently. I also spent a few weeks working in the lab associated with the farm and can confirm the source.
October 7th, 2019 at 5:01 PM ^
jmblue, you say that like its a bad thing.
October 7th, 2019 at 8:55 PM ^
Speaking from my childhood experiences while helping on various relatives' farms , a pig farm smells much worse than a dairy farm. ESPECIALLY when the summer heat and humidity set in.
October 7th, 2019 at 10:45 PM ^
in fairness, pig scat does have a funk like no other substance on earth.
October 7th, 2019 at 12:38 PM ^
Anywhere they want to. Not exactly the toughest ticket to get ahold of.
October 7th, 2019 at 12:38 PM ^
We will be in 102
October 7th, 2019 at 12:39 PM ^
127 row 34
October 7th, 2019 at 12:44 PM ^
Anywhere. There will be a lot of empty seats.

We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender

They have most of his most famous speeches there. It's pretty great.
October 7th, 2019 at 5:07 PM ^
with all due respect, this is the line from churchill that will send shivers up your spine:
never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy
October 7th, 2019 at 12:54 PM ^
Don't go. There's no sex in the Champaign room.
October 7th, 2019 at 1:19 PM ^
I'm pretty sure the orange team's going to take it from behind.
October 7th, 2019 at 1:00 PM ^
I posted a similar thread a couple months ago:
https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/2019-road-games-football-ticket-questions
and got some answers and information that might help you. But glad to see your thread today, as I've been monitoring both StubHub and the Champaign-Urbana weather forecasts to determine the best ticket strategy.
October 7th, 2019 at 1:09 PM ^
I'll be in section 107. This is on Michigan's Sideline and as someone else pointed out, where most visiting teams buy tickets.
Go Blue!
October 7th, 2019 at 1:35 PM ^
Us too. Go Blue!
October 7th, 2019 at 1:31 PM ^
Thanks for all the inputs.
I was looking at 105 which is on/near the 50.
It's not like we've never been the only Michigan fans in our section but it would be nice to have a friendly face in the area.
October 7th, 2019 at 2:05 PM ^
Bought our tickets in 105. Row 18 or something.
October 7th, 2019 at 1:35 PM ^
Section 107; Row 38
October 7th, 2019 at 1:41 PM ^
Sec 126, row 7.
October 7th, 2019 at 2:33 PM ^
I'd rather be sitting in champagne, but that sounds more like recent Kansas bball 'cruitin.
October 7th, 2019 at 2:37 PM ^
I'll be in Section 106 (row 37) and tailgating in Lot 39 (which is in the bball arena's parking lot)
October 8th, 2019 at 12:20 PM ^
Is Lot 39 prepay or pass holders only or is it open to the public?
October 7th, 2019 at 2:42 PM ^
pretty much anywhere they want
October 7th, 2019 at 2:44 PM ^
on my couch
October 7th, 2019 at 4:10 PM ^
I bought a ticket so I plan on sitting in that seat
October 7th, 2019 at 4:34 PM ^
126, row 37
October 7th, 2019 at 5:39 PM ^
Why sit in Champaign when you can bath in champagne? This is how I roll on Saturday nights.
October 8th, 2019 at 9:49 AM ^
206 but we will be with friends who are IL season ticket holders. My buddy from Flint is in 106 with his family.
