Michigan Lights Up the Big House

The University of Michigan will spend $1.8 million to add permanent lights at 83-year-old Michigan Stadium. The school's board of regents approved the project Thursday, which comes on the heels of a recently completed three-year, $226 million renovation that boosted seating capacity to 109,901 - allowing the Big House to reclaim the title of the country's largest football stadium.

"It's going to be better for our fans in the stadium and those watching the broadcast," Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon told the lights. "It'll lead to less wear and tear on our newly renovated stadium and, over time, it will be a financially good decision, too."
