The Official Tally: Enough to Make Your Head Spin (But Not Literally, We Hope)

Tip: Read slowly to catch the finer details.
But wait, there's more!
Tip: Rest your eyes, then continue.
Crowds That Burst at the Seams (Not the Stadium, Thankfully)
Now, cramming that many people into one place might sound like a logistical nightmare, and let's be honest, it probably is. But here's the thing: Michigan Stadium has a history of exceeding its official capacity. We're talking crowds so big, you'd need a drone to find your friends in the stands.
QuickTip: Return to sections that felt unclear.
The record for the most attendees at a Michigan Stadium game sits at a jaw-dropping 115,109. That's for a night game against Notre Dame in 2013, a game so electric, you might have sworn you felt the stadium itself buzzing.
Tip: Focus on clarity, not speed.
