You’ve never been to a football game?

Gabriel Ibarra | Monday, September 12, 2022

Ranking the 10 best things about Notre Dame

Colin Capece | Friday, August 27, 2021

For a long time now, I’ve been wanting to rank something in The Observer. Since the day I discovered in these pages the introspective yet comedic brilliance of master ranker and former Dunne Hall RA Davis Gonsalves, I was inspired to invoke the kind of spicy verbal mudslinging amongst the Notre Dame student body and

Football game social distancing

Mannion McGinley | Tuesday, September 15, 2020

To the group of 12 that sat in the row directly in front of me at the game and to others who made a similar decision: That was selfish. You and I both know you don’t live together, and we know you shouldn’t be taking your masks off to talk to each other, but sure,

Notre Dame football returned Saturday with a win over Duke in Notre Dame Stadium on a game day like no other.

Moller: The uncertainties of the 2020 college football season

Nate Moller | Wednesday, September 9, 2020

In a Sports Authority I wrote a couple of weeks ago, I predicted that college football would not happen in 2020. At the time it seemed reasonable, considering the Big Ten and Pac-12 had recently cancelled their season. COVID-19 was spreading rampantly around Notre Dame and other college campuses, and even professional sports were struggling

What’s the deal with bikes in the trees?

Thomas Diehl | Tuesday, January 21, 2020

When I visited Notre Dame during the summer of my junior year of high school, it was nothing short of memorable. The tulips around the Basilica’s Jesus Statue had fully bloomed as the Golden Dome radiated sunlight on this 60 degree day. The grass was perfectly cut in a pattern without a blade out of

St. Edward’s Hall residents continue long-held game day tradition of storming reflection pool

Chelsey Boyle | Friday, October 11, 2019

At 7:30 a.m. on a Saturday morning, Notre Dame’s campus prepares for the coming football game. Tailgates are set up, families are walking around campus and students are planning for the long day to come, hopeful for another Irish victory. But outside Hesburgh Library, a different type of spectacle can be observed: St. Edward’s Hall

Adventures in the student section

Letter to the Editor | Wednesday, October 3, 2018

It started because my friend wore shorts to the Stanford game. Well, actually, it probably started at a tailgate an hour or two earlier, but I entered the narrative when my shorts-wearing friend turned to me and asked, “Is someone … pouring something out? Behind us?” Unfortunately, there was no one pouring something behind us.

Ticket gouging was enough

Letter to the Editor | Friday, August 25, 2017

On Wednesday morning, I learned that Notre Dame is selling its game day experiences. And not figuratively: per WNDU, Notre Dame is charging U.S. dollars for the “opportunity to slap the ‘Play Like a Champion Today’ sign and get a picture on the field the day before the game, a tour of the press box and
