Back in the [Big East] day, the kids and I used to get in for free to see 'Cuse, Pitt, VT at Piscataway. Tickets for Saturday night are going for $225. Moral: Be careful what you wish for.
UPDATE: Ticket prices settled back into the $50-55 range before kickoff. Tailgate scene was a mosh pit with black clad students and more than a few adults devolving into pre-civilized behavior. Very intimidating sight. That said, I saw no disrespect toward Michigan fans, although it would be a cold day in July if no incidents were reported. Pasquale, my section's security guard, was reciting the RU chants and cheers throughout the game. I hope he had as good a time at it appeared to me.
Michigan had one physically impressive squad. Highly pro-Wolverine officiating inexplicably flipped RU's way on the last UM drive, leaving the Detroit Free Press decrying the refs. Hoke facially resembles Chris Christie. Maybe he can get a job as Christie's double once he's fired later this week.
