My dad... The oldest of eight.. Grew up in Dearborn. His dad was a tool and die maker at the Ford Motor Company and part of the development team for the Mustang.
My mother was from Jackson where her dad worked 35 years as a tire builder at Goodyear.
My dad would look for a ride to Ann Arbor after his Friday night football game. If no one was going to the game, he'd hitchhike there. He never had the money for a ticket so he'd jump the fence and sneak in. Dad said he got his pants caught one time... The ushers saw him and threw him out. But my dad loved Michigan football and snuck back in during halftime.
He saw every Michigan home game from 1947-1950 just that way. And it was worth the effort. Michigan was back to back National Champions in 1947 and 1948.
I remember taking our battery operated radio outside on Saturdays while dad and I did yard work... Bob Ufer could be heard over a John Deere riding mower causing dad and I to occasionally pause to hear Michigan football heroics... But sometimes to laugh hysterically at Ufer-isms. Boy were those good times!
One of the greatest legacies my dad left to me was a passionate love of Michigan football and all things Mee-chee-gan. There is no greater fight song than "Hail To The Victor's" and this video is my favorite rendition on the internet. Tears well up in my eyes every time I watch it. I get extra emotional over it realizing that it was written by Ernie Elbel.. From my home town of South Bend, Indiana... on the bus ride back from Chicago after the Wolverines captured their first conference championship by beating the University of Chicago.
True Michigan football historians already know this... But U of M has been the beneficiary of many great players who hailed from the Hoosier state, as well. The most famous of all... I'm sure you've heard of him... Was Tom Harmon.. From Rensselaer, Indiana... Michigan's first Heisman Trophy winner in 1940.
The current Michigan team has at least two Indiana kids on the roster... Backup QB Brandon Peter's who was "Mr. Football" as a high school player from Avon, Indiana... And RB Chris Evans from Indianapolis Ben Davis High School. Chris is a great compliment to Karon Higdon in Michigan's running attack and has four touchdowns this season for the Maize and Blue. Peters hasn't seen many snaps this year but we all need to pull for him now that McCaffrey is down with a broken collar bone.
GO BLUE!
who cares
Now that's a great way to enter.
The sound of the U of M Marching Band always gives me chills. If you like marching bands you will love it in the auditorium. I am also impressed by the precision. Whether they smile of not is unimportant. Not everyone likes to smile. It is how they play that counts.
I cry when we go to games...it brings back life in a crazy world!
Best Cadence and BEST FIGHT SONG EVER!!!!
My school also uses Victors and we high step.
No two ways about it. For decades the best damn marching band in the country, hands-down.
MikeInPlano times 10...HAIL HAIL TO MICHIGAN !
Nah... Marching Illini
@@mikeoxlong6996 how bout them buckeyes!
Buckeyes are still better
stanford
250 of the most trained, disciplined athletes in the world
Like my tee shirt says: "Marching Band. Like a Sport Only Harder"
Not a Michigan fan but the fight song and band are darned awesome.
The best in my opinion.
Well, John, you might become a Michigan fan. It would improve your life immensely. :o)
I'm in tears.
FABULOUS 💛💙
For an old Bandsman from the 1960s NOTHING is more thrilling than that cadence and the memories it brings. Tears in the eyes. Now if we could just clean up the rushed figures in Victors.
Amen to the rushing. Listening to our recordings circa 2000 we rushed back then too 🎺😭
Check recordings in the 1960s. You'll notice quite a difference, the absence of Igor Beevor, the famous Rushin' Musician.
It ain't X-cadence if it ain't played around MM 180-220, right? Of course, the entrance to the stage at Hill is a bit longer than the entrance to the field at a game, so this requires a bit more endurance than on game day....
Sorry for the way late reply. Are you the former conductor of the Belleville High School bands?
I really hate how fast they play it now compared to even 15-20 years ago
LET'S GO BLUE!!!😁😁
Love it. And hats off to the young woman in the bone section who had my old "11" spot as it was known back in the day (spot one on the first rank of bones, usually the section leader). Band sounds great! Go Blue!
That's the big ten baby
I was also in the marching band when I was younger. Thank you very much for the wonderful performance that reminds me of those days full of youth. Thanks to you, I've recovered.
Omg they make my heart happy💕
Tremendous passion and enthusiasm.
1957 One never forgets, Go Blue
I remember watching this when I was in high school. I thought it was just another boring orchestra at first....boy was I wrong
HAIL TO THE VICTORS 2024 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

the champions of the West!
GET THOSE LEGS UP!

LOVIN IT LOVE EN IT .
Fantastic band
I'd like to see the fight song played for each section of the band. "ok, just flutes. now just trumpets. just snares now." i mean, how many times can they play the fight song in the span of 1 minute
7-0 this szn. Just like 2021. Lil sis is on the clock. Also, Michigan marching band is talented, disciplined, and good players. I have been to one other Mich game when they played NW last year. Band was amazing. I can’t wait to attend the Michigan state game. Lets beat our little sister!
Remarkable, eh? UCSD grad here (same school colors, btw)...no football team so we cheer (well, some of us) for the sister campus up north (and goodness, they're going to join you conference in '24). Your fight song is unmatched overall (lyrics, music, college spirit infused and conveyed) and your bands over the decades (especially under Revelli, the Toscanini of band directors) were always among the best, if not the best, in the country (sorry y'all - especially OSU, fine as your band looks as you "cross the field" with that pretty fair rouser of a tune). Spartans might as well start waving their white flags of capitulation.
Greatness
Go Blue !
You won’t see any of my fellow SEC bands come on the field like these kids do! I love Michigan’s fight song because they use my High Schools fight song! 😂 Murrah H.S.; Jackson, MS! Go Wolverines!
#hailstate!
Go Blue!!!
Go big blue
How did they even make a sound from their instruments after all that high knee runnin?????
Go Blue Bauer family
My two favorite fight songs r war eagle auburn and hail to the Victors
Bet the Sousaphone guys wish they had stands like the drummers.
Go blue
2nd coolest fight song behind On Wisconsin
I'm guessing this was the directors choice but the tubas couldn't play that loud enough :/ other than that great stuff
Hail! We beat Ohio St
That was rousing - let's go attack another state
When's the last time you beat the Buckeyes
Min Thant Kyi Thar go bucks

A marching band is not the same thing as a football team.
Do try to keep up.
When Ohio had a player that could read.
O -H - F - U . Go Blue u troll!
Bare-legged girls? Nevah!!!!!!
'Did you know Bo was born a Buckeye
Bo: the only man to play for Woody, Coach with Woody, and Coach against Woody.
Another interesting fact: the first edition of “The Game” after Woody died was a Michigan win in Ann Arbor and the first edition of “The Game” after Bo died was a Buckeye win in Columbus.
Cute prance.
Too many wood winds - need moar tuba.
"I got a fever, and the only prescription, is more TUBA!"
their entrance march sounds awfully close to Central Michigan's entrance march.
Of course it does. It also sounds like my Walled Lake high school entrance march. It's Michigan.
Lekcots11 Or from another point of view, CMU’s cadence sounds a lot like this one. MMB has used this entry cadence since the 1950’s, possibly earlier.
Adrian did this as well
Now compare this modified MMB performance, to a regular NEBRASKA BAND SHOW! It's like putting a push cart in a race against an INDY CAR! Please Nebraska, FIX YOUR BAND, or just don't ever bring them to away games because you ah, you ah, YOU JUST SUCK, YOU JUST SUCK! I'd put Ann Arbor Pioneer up against the Cornhusker band any day, and still win in a band competition!
As a Pioneer alumni, I don't know how to take this comment lol
This band has nothing on the Spartan Marching Band
youre saying that out of sentiment, like they do sound good
