2008 Football Events

We know you love Michigan football and we're here to help. Make your fall football season an unforgettable one with our 2008 football programs.

Amaizin' Blue Tailgate Tour
Our away-game tailgates provide a fun, lively atmosphere and convenient locations. Plus, you'll be surrounded by lots of other Michigan fans. Admission is kept low and a la carte food options are available to fit everyone's budget and schedule.

Go Blue Pep Rally
Join the Go Blue Pep Rally on Friday, September 26, the night before the Michigan vs. Wisconsin game, to get into the Maize and Blue mood. Bring the whole family to this free event featuring coaches, players, the marching band and the cheerleaders. Let’s show Wisconsin who really rules college football!

Go Blue Homecoming Tailgate
This fun, family event has become the best place for Michigan fans in Ann Arbor to gather before the football game. The party features thousands of alumni and fans, great food, entertainment and an exclusive appearance by the Michigan Marching Band. And, we're just a short walk from Michigan Stadium.

Football-Watching Tailgate Parties
If you can't make it to these great events, check with your local alumni club. Many host football-watching parties so you can cheer on the Maize and Blue with other Wolverines.

Michigan Stadium Tours
Tour the Big House, exclusively with the AAUM! Walk through the tunnel, try on real Michigan football shoulder pads or the winged helmet. Spend time in the Michigan locker room, throw a football across the goal line, and feel the wind on your face as you run down the field. This is your chance to go behind-the-scenes at the best college football stadium.

Pigskin Picks
Don't miss this chance to prove how well you know college football by playing Pigskin Picks. Each week you pick the winners of each week's top college football games. Each week's winner gets a prize, and you accumulate points toward the grand prize: your choice of a trip to a 2008 Michigan road game or two season tickets to U-M's 2008 home games.

Football Fantasy Experience
The Michigan Football Fantasy Experience is the opportunity of a lifetime for the True Blue Michigan football fan. The winners will enjoy a football game like a VIP. There are two ways to be a winner: Enter the free drawing or take part in the online auction to be a sure winner.

Official Bowl Tour & Tailgate
No matter where we play in the post-season, the AAUM offers the Official University of Michigan Tour and Tailgate. Our tours give you extras not available to other travelers, including an exciting pep rally and other exclusive events, souvenirs and more. We create a "bowl game experience"—not just a trip. It's the ultimate fan experience!

87th Annual U of M Club of Greater Detroit Football Bust
Join this annual tradition honoring the football team. The event features speeches by the players, a review of the season and the presentation of the coveted "M" rings to the senior players.
