We did a road trip to watch the Cats play the Eastern Michigan Eagles at Ford Field in Detroit. The Cats looked flat but sealed the victory with a 71-yard TD pass to Kim Thompson with 2:44 to go, bringing the Cats 1 win closer to bowl eligibility.
High (and low) lights from the trip.
Attendance. If there were 3,000 people at the game, I'd be amazed. The stands were virtually empty, and surprisingly, there were basically zero EMU fans in attendance. At capacity of 65,000, Ford Field was empty and lonely for this game.
Car. Yowsah, Mercedes makes a nice ride. I could spend hours fiddling with all the gizmos loaded into that car.
Battle Creek. Ouch, this town looks a bit shopworn and when did they stop making all the cereal here? Plus, the stripper club is exceptionally skanky and is not recommended.
Downtown Detroit. Jacoby's and Greek Town are highly recommended. Potato pancakes and sausage, beer, rodidis, octopus and football. Can't be beat.
Next up for the Cats is Purdue at West Lafayette.
