I thought about that, especially as regards the final - I know A LOT of
Michigan fans showed up between the semi and the championship in
Cincinnati. But I don't think the final was sold out, and the Michigan
folks were able to buy from the ticket office, not on the street. I seem
to recall there were empty seats, even with the influx of Blue. Was that
really only 9 years ago?
