A look at the culture of smoking at University of Michigan and in particular, its tie to athletic teams and functions. I briefly discuss few items of smoking memorabilia like ashtrays and tins/artwork from “Smokers’ — campus social functions where students smoked tobacco together and rejoiced.
Finally, a quick story of how a few Michigan football stars tried to peddle ‘Hurry Up Yost’ cigars.
