Could the IRISH End Up in the Rose Bowl?


The folks in Pasadena are already talking about the prospects of Notre Dame returning to the Rose Bowl -- the Irish last played in that game in 1925! 

This could be fun!   

Thanks to ND GO IRISH BLOG regular Shawn Gallagher for alerting me to this story.

Photo of the Day: The Green Fire Truck!




You've got to love this!

ND GO IRISH BLOG regular Corey Angst (Mendoza College of Business faculty member) was kind enough to forward me these photos of a 1934 Ford Fire Truck that a number of "Notre Dame" families have restored; the Angst family, Kidder family, Cullinan family, Dugard family, Cox family, Egan family, Sedlack family, Curran family, Smoker family, Haigh family, Barrett family, O'Shaughnessy family and the O'Brien family.

You can find it over in the Hesburgh Peace Studies parking lot on football weekends!

Corey believes the GREEN FIRE TRUCK has brought the IRISH Good Luck and should be given some of the credit for NOTRE DAME's undefeated season!   

Hey, we're 9 - 0  -- they better drive that truck to Los Angeles over Thanksgiving!
