Wow, Michigan had night games back in the ’50s!
See Rich, it’s a tradition. That means you have to do it.

The bad news: The current renovation plans do not include permanent lights! Not to say they can’t just bring them in like they do for the 3:30 games, but to date there’s never been a night game at Michigan stadium.

This is Mike Renda, Hercules Renda (the 11th item, 1940’s) was my uncle, he died a few years back but really nice collection there, we got some official signed cards and footballs, old original team photos etc… when i can i’ll take some pictures. Just letting you know.
