1. Mirror Lake Jump
Every year people celebrate their hatred for Michigan by jumping into a freezing cold pond and chanting, "We don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan."
2. The Senior Bar Crawl
Thousands of seniors (and some sneaky underclassmen...I knew a girl who went every year) in white t-shirts go to the various bars on High Street and check off where they've gone. This is an all day belligerent adventure.
3. BuckeyeThon
BuckeyeThon is a giant fundraiser for kids with cancer where you dance non-stop for one of the twelve hour shifts. Each year, a couple of kids are chosen to be guests of honor and get to stand on a stage while thousands of people cheer them on.
4. Light Up The Lake
The service club the Ohio Staters puts on an amazing show filled with music acts from Ohio State clubs and the theater school to celebrate unveiling the christmas light covered trees surrounding Mirror Lake. It's absolutely beautiful and a cheap date too.
5. Michigan Game
Ok this list wouldn't be complete without it. You have to attend at least one football game and if you're going to do it, do it right with a Michigan game. There's nothing like screaming "rip his f***ing head off" with 100,000 of your closest friends.
6. Canes
You have to try Canes. The Box Combo, no slaw, extra toast, butter both sides. It's fried chicken, but really it's so much more than just fried chicken.
7. Day At The Oval Beach
Skip the books for one day and go chill on the Oval Beach. Be college as hell and play frisbee or be that guy who brings their dog so he can meet pretty girls that are laying out without seeming too creepy.
8. The Whisper Wall
If you have a few minutes between classes go check out the Whisper Wall. Stand on the opposite end of the wall and say something quietly close to the step, your friend can hear you thirty feet away!
9. Rock Climbing At The ARC
Yes, it's far from campus, but take the 5min bus ride and go rock climbing. It's a ton of fun and free. So seriously what more could you ask for?
10. 11th Floor Of Thompson
Go piss someone off on the quietest part of campus. I dare you bring a bag of chips.
