SPORTS BY ANDREA GOFF ERIC RAJALA We camped out on the Diag with textbooks, Stucchi ' s ice cream, and cell phones when the weather was beautiful; we illuminated the Diag with the light from 1 0,000 candles on the evening of September 1 1 . We were outraged when the much-anticipated Naked Mile was thwarted by authorities and exploited by the media. With friends we celebrated milestone birth- days, making the rounds from Good Time Charley ' s to Mitch ' s and Conor O ' Neill ' s. As leaves fell from the trees we played frisbee in the Arboretum and drank apple cider at the local orchards. Streets flooded with maize and blue on home game days as we made our way to the Big House with 1 1 0,000 of our closest friends. As always, ghouls and goblins of the craziest kind appeared to celebrate Halloween Michi- gan Style To break up the monotony of classes, we donned boots and hats and paja- mas for theme parties that were thrown throughout the year. We came together to muddle through the lows of the year, and we came together to celebrate the highs of the year. We came together to support our friends. 144 | Sports
