2025 Season Ticket sales...

[Duncan Idaho]

I don't think so. We were high up for the game and had a good view of the stadium. In our section, there were maybe 4 Michigan fans. I would say 20% tops were Michigan fans. And, In 2012, the average attendance was 34,672 and the first 4 games in 2013 averaged 37,542. Then, the floor dropped out for UConn football and attendance collapsed driven by dreadful seasons in the AAC.

Season tickets and mini plans that included michigan were needed to get tickets for michigan. Maryland and South Florida were included in separate mini plans. That's why the ticket distribution was so high for the first four home games. iirc the student allotment was sold out that year too.

Booked years in advance when Big East football was still in existence and much more highly regarded than the AAC. The more interesting question would be how UConn booked the more recent game in Ann Arbor. That had something to do with Michigan's AD who had been UConn's AD, but still ....

was this the game where blue/white kid was holding up the "fours" at the start of the 4th when we were down like 3,000 - 0? lolol

We also opened for them in their newly renovated stadium.

Yep that was the Fiesta bowl year..... I went out to AZ vs. OU in Jan and to the Big House (and Uconn tailgate in the lumber yard)for the opener ...could of been a tight game vs. Mich at the half (21-17) if Shumate hadn't fumbled a TD try at the goal line in the last secs, IIRC... Then Uconn didn't score in the 2nd and lost 30-10.

Tickets came electronically the other day and parking by mail. Tough home slate to attract any sizable number of casual fans and 3 games are backloaded into late season. But I’m hoping we are on a roll and finish out strong at home.

I definitely don't remember any other fan bases having branded Winnebagos up and down Silver Ln. before or since.

It was impressive. We tailgated next to the most tricked out fan boy truck I've ever seen - complete with more bells and whistles (multiple tv's, etc.) and school colors and logos. Nicest people, too. It showed what the Rent could be if we ever got into the Big10 - a guy can dream - as it showed how many Big10 fans there are within drivable distances to CT.

I was in the lumber yard too! Great fun. Yes, that fumble was a killer

The lumberyard was the place to be. It was great fun and the Michigan fans were very welcoming, and didn't seem just "Midwest nice." At least at the time.
