Last year, I went to 27 Michigan events that were not football, hockey, or men’s basketball. I went to sports I had never watched before, saw comebacks and upsets and NCAA Tournament play. Mostly, I had a blast. When I proposed this column, it was ultimately because I hoped that maybe after reading about a team for a few weeks, someone might decide to go to the game.
You should go to the Michigan game. I don’t care which one. Maybe you like soccer. Maybe your kid plays lacrosse. Maybe it’s $1 night for gymnastics. Maybe it’s a warm day and they’re playing baseball.
