I will try to do it in sections so you guys can read what you want.

The Sighting

At about 10:20 on Friday morning I was on a tour at Holy Cross College near the Basil (Mens dorms) which happens do be decked out with The Office stuff so that was awesome as I was wearing an Office T-shirt. As we were leaving to go look at another part of the campus I turn around and see a familar looking man in a pink collared shirt walkin into the Basil Dorms. The words "JPham" quickly came out of my mouth but they were not loud enough. I did not want to abandon the tour so I carried on.

Soon enough i found myself in a familiar situation as we go into a young mans dorm room. He looked familiar but i could not place it. They once i get into the dorm room i notice the Pirate flag and ship hanging from the ceiling. This room seemed aweful familiar as well...

Friday Night Campus events

We stared off at the bookstore where my dad and I dropped about $500 on ND clothes and gifts. My wallet is thin now to say the least. After walkin around the campus for a while we went to the Notre Dame womens Volleyball game. Im not much into Volleyball but the game was very intertaining to watch to say the least. Then we stayed in the Joyce Center for the Pep Rally. It was a lot of fun, however there my aspirations of being the leprechaun ended becuase i can not do backflips...Just jokin.

Gameday

My dad and I woke up bright and early and headed over to Sout Bend once again. We got their very early but still seemed late by yhe number of people already there. We walked around the stadium for the most part. While we were eatin breakfast at the BK Lounge a part of the band marched through the building.... Sick! After that we walked around and eventually got in line and watched the team go into mass and watched them come out as well. We then wached the band a bit more and headed into the stadium.. We hug around the tunnel for the most part in the Pre-game( some Pics coming soon). Being in the staduim was overwelming at first but i put my gameface on for the opening Kick off. As Jpham pointed out early the crowd was loud the whole game but it seemed maybe the loudest as Robert Hughes got the first Touchdown... that was an awesome moment. After that the game went on as i planned...4 hours of standing and screaming. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life even though we lost... Hope to have many more of those soon... Thats all i got for now... Ill add stuff as i think of it.

Oooh, that's my old room ! My old roommates still live there.
History was made in that room, Rammer. But it's clearly nothing without me.

Lol so b4 my thread gets totally jacked... U lived at HC while at ND?

It's a long story. But I took a year off after high school but decided to do at the last minute, Holy Cross for the semester instead of sitting around at home. I applied to Notre Dame as a freshman the following year. So while I may be college sophomore, I'm turning 21 in about a month. :banana:

EDIT: This is why I have so many friends at HCC and can help you get into ND from HCC if that's the way it goes down.

Now, I could be wrong but I believe J Pham was implying he would one day like to participate in the act of premarital sex in Notre Dame Stadium. Remember, he's forty. He's a man.
