The University of Michigan will gross approximately $4.5 million just from ticket sales from Saturday's on-campus football game against Minnesota in Ann Arbor. And that's not counting parking and concession revenues.

The Gophers, who play at the off-campus Metrodome, gross an average of about $1 million from ticket sales per game. And Minnesota receives no parking revenue and just 30 percent of concessions.

Jeez Hansel you scared me. As a huge Michigan fan I saw the title of this top and thought our fullback got busted taking huge amounts of money from a booster. :confused:

My son and I were two of the 111,000+ in attendance. That's $108 right there! :D
