Going to Michigan, you get very use to having Noon/1pm games. We may get two 3pm games and the only time we get a night game is when we play Northwestern at their stadium. For some reason the Big House does not have night lights for a game (but instead of spending them on that, they decided to go out and put an UGLY-FUGLY a$$ halo around the stadium that cost way to much, which they took down after 3 weeks cuz everyone hated it)
But for Big games like ND, OSU and MSU tailgating especially for alumni starts at seriously 5am in the morning (Pioneer HS parking lot along with the UM golf course). Students tend to start at like 8/9am. Everyone gets to the stadium early cuz driving and walking to it takes forever, especially when ESPN's Game Day comes.

Does anyone else sell parking spots on their front lawns? A lot of students did this for ppl cuz parking on Game Saturdays suck and use the money for kegs???
It's so bad that you can actually get a ticket for parking in certain areas of A2 (Ann Arbor) on game day.
