The “friendly competition” he was referring to was Michigan rival Ohio State’s impressive halftime show during an Oct. 5 home game against the Michigan State Spartans complete with fog effects.
An impressive tribute to the Apollo 11 mission! 👏Great work @OhioState. I know Neil would have been proud of his home State. https://t.co/aKgclmnLDl
