A new era of Michigan football kicks-off this fall when Michigan hits the road. Spend your football Saturday’s at the Alumni Association’s fun-filled 2008 Amaizin’ Blue Tailgates.

Our low-priced tailgates are the best place to be when Michigan takes on its Big Ten opponents in enemy territory.  Not only are these events great fun for alumni, your families and students, but with convenient locations and a la carte food options, these events are designed to fit everyone’s budget.

Come for the entire party, stop by for a dose of Michigan cheer as you explore the home team’s campus or simply drop in for a beer and a rousing chorus of “The Victors”. Why tailgate with the “other guy” when you can tailgate with your Alumni Association and the Maize and Blue?
