The Michigan Wolverines played the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Ann Arbor on Sunday. It isn’t necessarily a rivalry game, Nebraska is new to the Big 10, but it is a big game because they’re two big programs that haven’t played one another a lot outside of bowl games.

So big that University of Michigan president Mary Sue Coleman addressed the crowd during the half time. It sounds like she spent a little bit too much time pre-gaming though. She is clearly slurring her words but that isn’t the only tell-tale sign of her alleged inebriation.

She also does the “and another thing” drunk people do when rambling. She also says “I thank you sooooooo much.” At one point she even sounds a little bit like Roseanne Barr.

The video is from the crowd so it basically is just the audio, but I’d love to find a better camera view of this to see what her physical body language is like. I doubt the Michigan athletics department releases it though.
