Parking for The Game

Sorry if this message is in the wrong place-I'm new here. This will be our first time to The Game. Can anyone offer suggestions/directions about where to park? We plan to arrive around campus between 9:00 and 10:00 am on Sat., from Southbound I-71 (Cleveland area). THANKS!!

:oh:

Say 6-7AM. (Lots open at 6 - you can always get a breakfast somewhere close to campus, or bring your grill and get the bacon done).

If you are too late you might not find any parking - even in the peripheral lots.
Here is the parking map BTW - PDF

Different, yes. Woody was before my time and I wasn't really old enough to "feel" the Earl games. I had that nervous anticipation when Poop, I mean Coop was at the helm. I always knew we should win, but was just waiting for that sick feeling to sink in when they mucked it up. In '02 I was nervous as hell until the "holy Buckeye" play in the Purdue game. Ever since that game, my Buckeye nerves have calmed. I still get the nervous excitement, but knowing Tress is there gives me a comfort I never had going into The Game. This year feels different because for the first time in my life I really feel like we are going to win big. This is our year.

Parking info for the Michigan game. Notice the Columbus Police Parking Ban part in bold. Don't think that's happened before. Sucks cause I park my car on Norwich...

Any vehicle not removed by this time will be towed to the football parking tow lot (located at the corner of John Herrick Drive and Cannon Drive) at the owners expense.

Solely looking at backfields and receivers, if someone told me they'd take Hart, Henne, Manningham & Arrington or Breaston over Troy, Antonio, Ted & Gonzo, I'd punch them in the face. I have a lot of students down here who think Meatchicken is just as talented as us...now, are they a top ten talent team? Yes. Would I trade any of our guys for any of theirs? No.

Carr upset after interview
By Jim Carty
News Sports Reporter

Nobody's talking about why, but after University of Michigan football coach Lloyd Carr finished taping interviews for Saturday's game against Ohio State with ABC Sports Monday, he came storming out of the Michigan locker room irate and loudly complaining about the direction the questioning had taken.

Carr uttered several profanities and left in his car after ordering Dave Ablauf, assistant director of media relations, to go back and address his concerns with the television crew.

Ablauf and ABC officials refused to discuss the incident afterward.

Seriously, is anyone surprised that a Bengal would get cocky and act like a fucking idiot? That a Wolverine would? That a Bengal Wolverine would?

Looks like Chad Johnson's stupidity is rubbing off on his teammates.
