They tried it last year for the USC game. It doesn't work. The old fans will never get the information.

It would be great, but you really need the University to get behind this, and pronto.

It wont happen, unless its a night game. Its still appears to be more a family atmosphere at the games. If we could play 1 or 2 nigt games against a major opponent you would see a different crowd.

What does a family atmosphere have to do with wearing a green shirt? I sent in a question to the Coach Kelly Radio show asking him to lead the charge on a "green out" at the stadium on Saturday. Couldn't hurt for others to pose the same question......

If you know someone going to the game, tell them to spread the word. Gold Helmet and Domer Domain need to be spreading the word if they are not already through their websites.

Contact your nearest Alumni Associations.....get the word out! We can make this happen!!!

Theres a thread on this last year and in that very thread are guys saying im not gonna wear green to the game its stupid, or ugly. A younger, rowdier crowd are more likely to do this. The student section is always up for it. Its all the grandpas telling people to sit down suring the game that will always kill this idea

I sent an e-mail to the South Bend Tribune, which may be stupid because they may not care, but hey thought i would try. Who knows what could happen. Nothing has ever happened when you don't try.

Yeah Jason, I forgot about that thread and stumbled across it late last night. That said, whether or not it happens, a concerted effort might create the spark for doing it in the future, and I have always been a proponent of this being an regular thing. You see it happen every week at schools like Nebraska, Tennesse, etc., but I also understand that in those cases, that it is one of their primary colors. Green has an obvious affiliation to the Fighting Irish, but is a secondary color to our Blue and Gold.

All the same, I have sent an email to the Alumni Association. GREEN OUT!!!!!!

I WANT A GREEN OUT.

But I agree with Jason that it prolly ain't happening. I sit in the Alum sections most times I go to the games and there's a good percentage of crotchety old men and proper women who would never put a kelly green t-shirt on over their sweater in a million years*. One of the things about being ND is that your student section is fairly limited (though unmatched in enthusiasm.)

*On the other hand, I also noticed a ton of people being pushed up after ND scored in the non-student sections on the other side of the stadium. Whoever that was (young alumni) might be up for it, BUT I think most of them were only coming out for the first game. This might be a crusade for next year.

You noticed me, Syria!!!

I've got one more game. This quasi-young alum will do his best to keep section 24 rockin and rollin'.

GREEN OUT!!!!!!!

for what it is worth i e-mailed a few other people that usually attend the press conferences, so if they worked we might here a question presented tomorrow at Kelly's weekly press conference.

but my hopes for them listening isn't too high, but its worth a shot

i'm just trying to get the old aura back to ND stadium even if it means by new methods. i remember when the crowd at ND actually got a flag for being too loud, that would never happen these days.

but i want it too
