What Michigan stuff did you get for Christmas?
The annual thread.
My girlfriend spoiled me like crazy this year. I felt like a kid again.
The centerpiece being my first Bo Schembechler autograph. Those aren't cheap for anyone who knows about autograph collecting. It's certified too with a PS/DNA number.
My most unique gift is a Bob Ufer scoring horn from MDen. If you've been to MDen and saw it behind the counter and see it's gone now, well she purchased it lol. The MDen folks said it was the first one they've sold. Can't wait to use it on Saturday.
Let's see what you got!!

Whose helmet was it?
December 26th, 2018 at 3:31 PM ^
Willie Henry's. It's got #ChadTough written on the back bumper. He got a new helmet after the Indiana game due to this one being (obviously) too smashed up.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:07 PM ^
What?!?! How does someone get their hands on something like that?
December 26th, 2018 at 2:44 PM ^
I got a jump man maize Michigan football t-shirt and a gray Nike hoodie sweatshirt, and I must say, I'm rather disappointed in the sweatshirt. It's like a thick t-shirt. Not very heavy or sweatshirt like. Cool looking, but thin, and not worth the price, but it says Nike and Michigan on it.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:26 PM ^
I got a big turd, just like the one Ohio gave us to eat this year.
December 26th, 2018 at 4:35 PM ^
You created an account today to post this?
December 27th, 2018 at 9:39 AM ^
Lol, no. I found this board and created the account. I was just trying to be funny but failed.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:41 PM ^
I got the knockoff lego Michigan M. Once built it will go next to the helmet I got last year and maybe one day the Michigan Stadium set will join.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:45 PM ^
None. I already have about 10 M shirts, a baseball hat, a coat, a license plate frame and 2 degrees.
I buy one new shirt every football season and retire the rattiest one.
I'm good.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:47 PM ^
Serious question, how much are Bo’s signatures worth and I have one personalized to me is that worth more or less? Thanks!
December 26th, 2018 at 3:53 PM ^
Depends on what was signed I would guess.
December 26th, 2018 at 4:44 PM ^
It’s on a copy of the front page of the Ann Arbor news the day he retired.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:48 PM ^
Michigan Jordan 32’s and 12’s and a
“Maize and Blue till the day I’m through” shirt. It’s pretty awesome w a skull.
December 26th, 2018 at 3:50 PM ^
From our 3 sons ... an authentic Desmond Howard navy game Jersey signed by the man himself. Personalized to my myself and the MGoWife. Awesome gift!
December 26th, 2018 at 4:50 PM ^
By "navy" do you mean BLUE? Or did M actually play Navy when DH was at M?
December 26th, 2018 at 3:53 PM ^
Wife got me tickets to the Michigan/Ohio State game this year in Ann Arbor.
Be my first game in the Big House, pretty excited for it
December 26th, 2018 at 4:37 PM ^
Hope Haskins goes pro
December 26th, 2018 at 5:26 PM ^
He'd be a fool not to with the Oregon QB announcing he's staying in college. Haskins would be the top QB of this draft class easily. Him or Tua, anyways.
December 26th, 2018 at 8:14 PM ^
Tua is a true sophomore so he cant enter this draft...
December 26th, 2018 at 4:48 PM ^
I received an email and postcard from Warde Manuel discussing Preferred Seating Contributions!!! :(
(I dislike receiving U of M clothing b/c my wifey will wear it without telling me, and promptly spill something on it, or drop food on it, so it becomes discolored/unwearable.)
December 26th, 2018 at 4:54 PM ^
To OP ... THAT is AWESOME! She’s definitely a keeper with gift giving tendencies like that!
December 26th, 2018 at 5:13 PM ^
I got boxer shorts and a navy shirt.
December 26th, 2018 at 6:28 PM ^
My Dad got me the seats at Michigan Stadium for season ticket holders.
December 26th, 2018 at 9:01 PM ^
The seat cushions are the best investment you’ll make as a season ticket holder, in my humble opinion. Great purchase!
December 26th, 2018 at 7:20 PM ^
Wife always wants me to give her a list of stuff I want for Christmas. I just tell her anything Michigan, so she proceeded to get me tickets for the OSU game (first game ever for me at The Big House), Jordan Michigan polo, 2 pairs of Michigan socks, Michigan beer bottle koozie, Michigan lunch box, and Michigan pajama pants.
December 26th, 2018 at 7:44 PM ^
Big House Puzzle containing 2780 pieces of Legos type blocks from grandchildren.
Best for ages 12 and up.....that is 61 years younger than me. How long will it take to complete the construction? Probably a very long time.
December 27th, 2018 at 3:46 PM ^
DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 26th, 2018 at 8:42 PM ^
I didn’t ask for anything. Sick of giving UM money when they can’t even beat OSU.
December 26th, 2018 at 9:29 PM ^
I'm sure Warde will relay this information to Harbaugh and the players.
December 28th, 2018 at 10:09 AM ^
nice cartoon avatar of yourself. Never asked anyone to relay anything. All I said was what I'm doing
December 27th, 2018 at 3:50 PM ^
So give to the U of M not necessarily the football team.
December 26th, 2018 at 8:43 PM ^
Got the Michigan stadium big house puzzle. Slowly put it together with my son.
December 26th, 2018 at 9:00 PM ^
I got a porch stone with block M and Go Blue and I love it although it won’t be going on the porch, it’s sitting nicely in the living room
December 26th, 2018 at 9:04 PM ^
I got a Michigan themed buttplug
December 26th, 2018 at 11:14 PM ^
Glass?!
December 27th, 2018 at 3:51 PM ^
Plastic? Rubber?
December 26th, 2018 at 9:45 PM ^
Didn’t get any M gear this year. Very sad. :(
December 27th, 2018 at 12:49 AM ^
I still hang my ornament I got back when it was, "It's Happening". I thought Harbaugh would have won one B1G by now. Oh well, may be next season. And may be one year in the future we can win the national championship.
December 27th, 2018 at 4:34 AM ^
While I didn't get any UM gear, I realized that my Christmas was like Michigan's 2018 football season in a nutshell:
I had really high expectations, but got disappointed when those expectations weren't fulfilled.
Then I realized that I'd let my expectations get too too high in the first place, and that what I'd wanted wasn't realistic.
And if I concentrated on what I got rather than what I didn't get, it was a damn fine Christmas.
Plus, there was lots of liquor, which always helps.
December 27th, 2018 at 6:08 AM ^
the basic tee.
Richard is a Buckeye fan....don't be a dick
December 27th, 2018 at 9:47 AM ^
I got a new UM flag to replace my tattered one (are there special disposal requirements for the old one like the US flag?), and another sale rack UM polo shirt.
