If there was only a 1 in 100,000 chance of being a terror victim at a college football game, that would keep a lot of people away and there's not enough TV to show all the games. I guarantee you that the citizens of this country are not ready to live like the Israelis.

I've avoided discussing this story with my wife because we have plans to go to the Michigan Homecoming game this Saturday against Minnesota. If she read this thread she would not go to the game. The "Big House" holds over 107,000 people and will have a large regional TV audience. Probably a great target. I'm not much of a worrier, but I'll definitely have my guard up. They are already pretty thorough searching people who enter the stadium, and I am curious to see if security is any different that past weekends. Not too concerned once we get in, but at every entrance, especially the one nearest Stadium and Main Street, there are always large crowds gathered waiting for entry, or waiting to cross the street. Plus there are vendors selling things, etc. You wouldn't have to get into the stadium with a bomb to kill a lot of people. Then the panic would probably kill/injure more. Okay, now I am getting nervous.
