Notre Dame




Notre Dame Fighting Irish VS. Air Force Falcons
WIN for Notre Dame 59 - 33

Big thanks to my in-laws, Jerry and Sherry, for letting Sarah and I use their tickets for the game.  What a great time! 

Few fun facts about the Notre Dame football stadium. 

    • The stadium holds 80,000 people (although the attendance for the game was 80,795.  Pretty sure I know where those extra 795 people were sitting.  Our row.)
    • The seats are only 12" long and 4" wide (roomy)

    • Regis Philbin is always at the game.  I'm pretty sure I found where he sits.

    • The Marching Band is humongous and AWESOME! 
Most entertaining moment.
    • Drunk girl in front of us turns around and shouts, "There's a little girl in a green shirt whose deaf and she's missing somewhere in our section!"  A wave a panic runs through section 20.  Sarah turns around and tells the people above us.  I ask the drunk girl, "How old is the little girl?"  "I don't know" she replies "Let me ask the usher."  We hear a number that is bellowed back to us that is either 6, 16, or 60.  She shouts back to the user, "16?"  He shouts back loud and clear, "SIXTIES!"  So I turn around and clarify to the people behind us, "Turns out she's not such a little girl, but still deaf and still missing."  Then the guy behind us asked if his grandma was at the game.
Coolest Thing to Happen.
    • This award has to go to the B2 Bomber fly over before the game.  It came from behind us and flew right over our heads.  A-MA-ZING!
