This has become a tradition here, organized by Jeffrey Holzhausen the Tuesday before the annual Michigan-Ohio State game, which is Saturday at Michigan Stadium. Holzhausen started the grave walk as an organized event in 1997, although he started coming alone to the grave sites in 1992 during his freshman year at Michigan as a personal tribute.

An estimated 200 fans walked Tuesday night through the cemetery, first stopping at Schembechler’s grave.

It looks cold as frick. What smart person would choose to live in a place where temps below the 20s are the norm for a six month period?

It seems like this sort of disrespectful thing would be outlawed by today's PC/SJW society. Someone would demand a public apology of or something.

But yeah, kind of a weird thing to do.
