the local sports scene
Ann Arbor is a town of about 120,000 people with a stadium that holds more than 107,000, which tells you most of what you need to know about autumn Saturdays here.
The local sports scene
The scene
Michigan Stadium — the Big House — is the largest stadium in the United States, and it is sunk into the ground so the scale only becomes obvious once you are inside. Basketball is at the Crisler Center and hockey at Yost Ice Arena, a 1923 building whose student section has its own liturgy of chants.
Rivalries that matter
Michigan against Ohio State is simply The Game, played on the last Saturday of the regular season since 1935. Michigan State plays for the Paul Bunyan Trophy, and the Notre Dame series is older still.
Where to watch
State Street and Main Street before kickoff; the golf course beside the stadium becomes the tailgate.
