So, it's Friday, I'm bored and it's looking to be a long, bleak winter. When you mix drinking with sports sometimes you end with hilarious results - so give me the best thing you've witnessed at/before/after an Ohio State game.
My personal favorite is that before the 2006 OSU-UM game I was walking on Lane Ave. and saw 2 Ohio State fans and 2 Michigan fans, all over the age of 65, get in a fist fight while yelling about Woody and Bo. (Spoiler: the OSU guys won. Go Bucks!)
Back in the day, a friend of mine from the dorms would bring his bagpipes into the big games. The one year, I do believe he was invited down to play in front of the band back when they were on the folding chairs in front of the student sections (sec. 5-11). He lives out of state now, but he's back every now and then with them.
02 scUM game, halftime. It was freezing cold that day and down 9-7 at the half so morale was low. Me and my buddy had some shitty tickets way up in C deck, like row 24, WAY up top. Kickoff for the 2nd half is underway, and walking up those steep steps of C deck comes some drunk guy stumbling his way up top. You can see him coming from about 15 rows below and hear people laughing and see heads turning towards him but couldn't tell why. When he gets up to our row and we can see him, you can now see why everyone was laughing and just how drunk this dude was. he had pissed himself, and I don't mean "a little dribble from a less than diligent shake before putting it away" spot. I mean the dude had full blown soaked his jeans from his waist, down both legs, all the way to his feet. And his now piss soaked pants were steaming in the freezing air as he was stumbling up the C deck steps. I'm sure for that minute and probably the next few, he was the warmest person in the shoe but within 10 minutes he had to be wearing a pair of pisscicle jeans for the entire 2nd half, and was too drunk to know or care.
At one of the Bowling Green games, early 2000's, I think half the stadium was chanting "Dirty Orange Vagina" stemming from one drunk guys taunts standing behind me and my friends. This guy kept up this tirade of BG insults for the entire game.
I remember a few years ago, after the Indiana game i believe. Me and my dad were just about to exit the stadium when a group of people stopped us and asked us to take their picture. They wanted to do an O-H-I-O. But, they spelled it O-I-H-O. I looked at my dad and whispered, "should we tell them?" And he said "nah. Theyll figure it out when they get home." So we took the picture, gave them their camera, and laughed about walking back, saying "Oiho".
Simple mistake...

It was the I think '98 OSU-mich game, me and a buddy were in the student stands and Ken-Yon Rambo dove for a TD pass or miss it, but anyway Rambo is flat on his back. Everyone else is walking back to the line of scrimage and all of a sudden he does that flip up and lands on his feet. Me and my buddy just turn towards eachother and start yelling "That's awesome" and the rest of the section started booing us thinking we were talking about the missed TD.
Singing "we don't give a damn for the whole stade of Michigan" in the Big House in '07. But that will soon be a close 2nd. I'm going to go ahead and forecast my funniest moment here:
November 29, 2014. Brady Hoke on his way to a 3rd straight loss to the Bucks and a 3rd straight year of mediocrity. Chants of "Brady has a Man-Gina" start coming from the students sections and eventually some of the Michigan players and referees get in on the action as well. Step Brothers fans, back me up here. If you haven't seen the movie, I hope you can admire my forward looking outlook of continued dominance over TTUN.
I laughed pretty hard when Carlos Hyde did the Denard eating thing to Denard at the end of this years game...

My frosh year, 2004 vs scUM. I had amazing tix the whole year. About 12 rows from the field near the south endzone. There was a dad carrying a whole shit ton of food and bevs. He was in the process of handing the food to his wife and kids when a hammered (not just drunk) fan trips and falls down the stairs right behind him, takes out the dad and all the food and drinks go flying everywhere.
Immediately security grabs the drunk guy and asks to see his ticket. The drunk guy pulls out his ticket and security says "first, you're all the way on the other side and second you just spilled all of this gentleman's food" The drunk guy then pulls out his wallet and pulls out a $100 bill and looks at it like Jerry Seinfeld does when he's wearing the glasses to confuse Lloyd Braun and gives it to the dad. As he's leaving, he trips and falls again, this time going up the stairs, another security officer comes over and yells "get this scUM fan outta here!"
Yes the best part of the whole story was that he was a scUM fan and gave the dad $100 unknowingly before getting kicked out of the Shoe.
In a game back in 2007, a woman sitting 3 rows directly behind me who ironically I seen partying her ass off at the heinigate(sp?) prior to the game decides that the halftime show was the perfect time to stand up and headbang to TBDBITL while also trying to take her shirt off, and not let go of her beer at the same time.. My buddy and I laughed and everything was good untill she decided to throw up on about 8 different people.. Security took her away and those that were puked on all got free, and clean tshirts to change into from one of the stands inside the stadium..
During this year's UAB game, some dude in B deck in the SW end of the shoe was decked out in Maize and Blue and to this day, I don't know why.

It was the 2012 Michigan game, and in the second half, UM didn't even get across the 50 yard line. That was FUNNY!
