‘Pissed off’ Michigan fans boo Walz after his motorcade forces them to wait in the rain for Minnesota game
NY Post ^ | 9/28/24 | Katherine Donlevy

University of Michigan fans vigorously booed Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz Saturday as he forced them to wait in the rain while his motorcade arrived at the Wolverine’s game against Minnesota Saturday.

The drenched fans at the Ann Arbor stadium also chanted “Tampon Tim” at the Democratic vice-presidential nominee — an apparent dig at a law Walz signed in Minnesota allowing free tampons in schools, including in boys rooms.

While some bused-in supporters held signs backing Walz and Vice President Kamala Harris, his hefty security detail prompted booing as it forced Michigan fans to wait up to 30 minutes in the rain before they were allowed to enter the venue.

“VP Candidate Tim Walz pissed off Michigan fans,” one fan said on TikTok.

Reps for the Michigan football team did not immediately respond to questions about the fans’ delayed entry time.

Despite hailing from the rival team’s home state, Walz arrived at the game early to tailgate with Michigan fans.

Walz — who has touted his stint coaching high school football on the campaign trail — also ran onto the field to meet with the team’s head coach, Sherrone Moore, but failed to reach him. He eventually settled for a hug from the Minnesota Golden Gophers mascot.

Bused-in supporters? That can get expensive.

I'm thinking that Moore ran away from Walz.

You can’t make this sheet up. Can’t believe the media doesn’t see this as funny.

First off the dumb SOB, shows up to a Michigan game. They’re reeling from their loss to Texas,

but can you imagine what would have happened if Minnesota had pulled it out in the end?

We must have a photo of this.

Yeah, just an "apparent" dig at Walz. What sort of special idiot is author Donlevy?

Reminds me of Kelli Stavast telling NASCAR driver Brandon Brown that the crowd was cheering him on with chants of "Let's go, Brandon" when they were actually screaming "Eff Joe Biden."

Timmy doesn’t remind me of a person who had athletic prowess. His football career is probably as fake as his military career. I couldn’t imagine playing for a coach who put tampons in the boys bathroom. We would have rode that clown out of town for a stunt like that. He would have come to his office and found used tampons all over his desk. His door handle would have been wet and sticky. There were some ruthless pranksters on the team who could get very creative. We would have had a good time with Tampon Tim.
