ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — The University of Michigan has figured out just how many fans it can seat in the new-look Big House.
The school announced Wednesday the capacity of Michigan Stadium will be 109,901 this season, making it the country's largest football stadium.
The public had 14 hours Wednesday to tour some of the new suites and club seats. A $226 million renovation will be completed later this summer. The project began a day after the 2007 season.
Well-heeled fans and companies are making at least a three-year pledge to pay up to $85,000 for a 16-seat suites plus prime parking. Club are as much as $4,000 per seat plus the cost of tickets and include a one-year term.
The Wolverines' opener is Sept. 4 at home against the Connecticut Huskies.
