The yellow and black bus rolled into Ann Arbor around 3pm and the Hawkeyes descended. Al Lockin and his big brother Doug and his baby brother Brian and Al's oldest, Iowa senior Ben. They prowled around the campus, checking out the wolverine good luck spots and hoping to lay a curse on! Then they arrived in Howell to treat the Friday night basketball gang to an exhilarating shoot around. Then with Molly in the car to keep the conversation going it was back to Ann Arbor to visit the iconic eatery Blimpie Burger. Luck was with the crew, and the crazy lady who yells at you to order, saw the kids and took it easy on them! Everyone enjoyed their burgers. Back to Brighton they all came, and we hung out in the kitchen visiting til much later than we should! In the morning an early breakfast was followed by a trip to Ann Arbor. This time the Hawk crew was joined by Danny and Jerry, representing the wolverines. The group enjoyed a tailgate and a stellar performance by the drum line before heading into the big house. Jerry and Danny ended up being able to sit with the Lockin line-up through the entire game, bravely wearing their maize and blue in the Iowa section. In fact, the Hawkeye quarterbacks Mom was sitting right next to them :)
Michigan blew Iowa away, so much so that the yellow and black bus was rolling west again before the fourth quarter even started. Better luck next time fellas!
