The Alumni Association of the University of Michigan is taking bids on a "Michigan Marching Band Fantasy Experience." The winning bidder and a guest will get to march with the band to Michigan Stadium for the Sept. 26 Homecoming game against Indiana University, enter through the tunnel and be next to the director's ladder during the pregame show.
The winner and guest will also get VIP treatment at the morning's rehearsal and pregame brunch.
The auction ends Sept. 18, and you need an eBay account to bid.
