I just received an ESPN text saying that Michigan Stadium will reclaim the title of largest stadium capacity in the United States for 2010 at 109,901 people.

Did they do some upgrades or what?

we lost the title because 5 rows on the east and west side of the stadium were taken out, the handicap seats were installed over the lawsuit. some disabilty foundation sued stating there wasnt enough handicap seats but the university argued that the stadium was exempt from modern code because it was basically untouched for 80 years untill all these rennovations started in 2007

Beautiful pics, man! That truly is a BIG HOUSE!

I walk over to Memorial Stadium almost every day, just to look at the field. I can't wait for football to start again!

 
we are going to look pretty stupid if we don't make a bowl game this year
Nah. You're going to look like a school that got the wrong coach, that's all.

Kind of like a certain future member of the Big 10 did around about six years ago. It'll work out, and you guys will be back where you belong soon.

 
I have seating capacity envy.
what you won't read about is while everything was torn up, there were supports put in the ground during the renovation for possible upper decks in the endzones which would bring the seating capacity up to 130,000. its a possibility to see this done in 5-10 years.

I'm going to have to sell a kidney and make it up to a game at Ann Arbor. Maybe I'll try to catch a Michigan/Indiana game or something so I can just hang with the Michigan fans and not have to jaw about who's going to win or lose our game.
