Arrived in the parking lot at Pioneer early and did a Mac Land tail gate. It costs $25 now for a car to park at Pioneer. Across the street at Ann Arbor Golf and Outing, it costs $40. I don't know how much it costs at the University Golf Course. We asked the ticket seller how much it was for RVs - $75 for the day and $125 for overnight.
After I walked around the parking lot for a while, I realized that there was no way I could make it to the stadium. So I didn't go to the game. (Foreshadowing - I was wondering about the results of the blood test on Thursday). I stayed by the car - and it was great. I had a lawn chair, a radio, lots of water, and it was a gorgeous day.
Michigan beat SanDiego State 24-21 (by the skin of their teeth). But at least it was a victory.
From mgoblue.com:
After trailing 21-17 at halftime, the No. 17-ranked Michigan football team shut out San Diego State in the second half and hung on for a 24-21 victory Saturday, Sept. 18, at Michigan Stadium. Braylon Edwards (left) scored the go-ahead touchdown on a seven-yard pass from Chad Henne to cap U-M's 79-yard scoring drive at the start of the second half. Edwards, who started the scoring with a 54-yard TD grab on the Wolverines' first play, finished with eight catches for 130 yards, while Michael Hart rushed 25 times for 121 yards.
At Sniders we watched State lose to Notre Dame.
