4. Attend The Game to see Ohio State-Michigan

Whether you catch The Game at the Horseshoe in Columbus or at The Big House in Ann Arbor, this rivalry game between two Big Ten powers and college football bluebloods is a must-see event. It’s one thing to watch the game on television but it’s a completely different animal when you’re sitting among 100,000-plus people in Maize and Blue or Scarlet and Gray.

If you’re in Columbus you can see the famous Buckeye marching band perform Script Ohio and ‘dot the i’ and if you’re in Ann Arbor you can watch the Wolverines run out onto the field under the Big Blue banner.

Records don’t matter. Who the coaches are doesn’t matter. All that matters is that these two teams and their fans quite literally despise each other, and it all comes to head one weekend per year.

On Thanksgiving weekend, there are few better places to enjoy the holiday than with the Buckeyes and Wolverines.
