Everybody Ready for Notre Dame Football

The records of my football rooting interests:
Glenbard East High School: 1-4
Notre Dame: 0-4
Northern Illinois: 1-3
Chicago Bears: 1-2

Combined record: 3-13 (Thank God that the Cubs are looking good)

Anyway, it seems like we've got a good group coming in for the Notre Dame vs. Boston College game. I want to start planning the weekend now so we aren't relying on the actual game to provide any happiness. Here are the people that I know are going: Sam, Pat, Rowlands, Kate (Rowland's Girlfriend), Jonathan, Meryl, Alissa, and Steve. Ted - are you coming up?

Sam, Pat, Rowlands, and Kate all get into Midway around 8:00 central time. They're crashing at my house that night. Plans for that night aren't set yet. Molly, my girlfriend might be coming into town, so if I promise Busch Light (for Pat), Guinness (for Sam), and whatever med students drink, can we party in that night? If everyone gets in on time, we probably will be back to my house a little after 9:00 pm. If Molly doesn't come up, we might want to consider seeing a cover band that a guy on my b-ball team is on. He is playing at a place Maxim magazine said you were "most likely to contract an STD." Jonathan - are you going straight to SB Friday? We probably have room for 2 more people at my house.

Saturday - Who knows of tailgates? We probably should have some type of plan since we are going to be a big group. We'll lose an hour getting to the game because South Bend is on Eastern time now. The game starts at 3:30. Leaving my house between 8:30 and 9:00 should have us tailgating by 12:00 SB time. After the game, do we want to eat in South Bend? Or head back to Illinois right away? I'm gonna be hungry because the game will end probably around 7:30.

The flights are all around 10:00 am on Sunday. My house is about a half hour away from Midway without traffic and there shouldn't be traffic on Sunday morning.

Just wanted to start getting people on the same page.

Peace Out,
Chris
