Ancestry Saturday: An O-H-I-O Tradition
Among my grandfather E.D. Naylor's belongings was a ticket for the 29th edition of "The Game" between Ohio State and Michigan.
Today, the 111th edition is played at Ohio Stadium.
The Buckeyes lost that day in 1932, 0-14 to a Michigan team that included Gerald Ford, the future U.S. President. It was also a Michigan team that would be declared National Champions too. That's a pretty memorable game.
His seat in Sec 11A would be pretty good today too. Inflation has eaten away at the price, though. The closest seat his $3 ticket goes for today on StubHub is $244.
Go Bucks!
