I live in upper Michigan; in fact, the hometown of Tom Izzo. My brother and Tom graduated high school together, so I've known him forever. I just happen to hate Michigan State! Always been a Michigan backer, until about 6-7 years ago, when I caught Tiger fever from having taken several trips to Memphis as an Elvis fan. My favorite all-time Tiger win is probably the dismantling the Tigers gave Sparty in the NCAA with D. Rose's bunch. NO ONE in this town believed the Tigers would beat State, because they had no clue as to the talent level they were about to see. It was a very satisfying day at the office the Monday following that game.

Anyway, I didn't mean to come off sounding negative/critical on my first post. As I said, I have watched about 90% of the Tigers games over the past several years. My wife, boys and I know when they play, and make a date with the television to watch. I just know that ever getting to a game in person will take an act of Congress, so seeing empty seats so visible on television is a bit disheartening to a guy who'd LOVE to sit there just one time.

Seriously....GO TIGERS!!!!! :)

I apologize most sincerely for calling you a troll. Please forgive me because this place is infested with them.
Do not let a ticket to the lower bowl stop you from coming to see a game. You can buy them all day long from the street venders for $40 and up, and you have a decent chance of a fan just giving you a couple.

Sounds like sound advice, thanks!! Any tips regarding tickets is much appreciated......:)
