I'm looking for IE's help in what might be a fun exercise.

IrishLion Cub #2 is due in October. IrishLion Cub #1 is moving to a bigger bedroom, and thus is getting some fresh paint and furniture.

My wife, the wonderful woman, suggested that we decorate one of his walls by painting a giant play diagram on the wall and going with a football/sports theme.

Her first suggestion was diagramming a Hail Mary, both because it's the only play she recognizes by name and because it has a bit of unique symbolism as a "prayer" in his room.

I thought it might be cool to solicit feeback from you guys on your favorite plays in Notre Dame football history, and maybe make the diagram something unique that I would recognize and could tell him about in the future, kind of like how Philadelphia fans are getting that trick play tatted on their bodies... but instead of a tat, this is easily-covered wall paint lol.

My first thought was the play where Golden Tate scored and then dove into MSU's band. I could even paint the route going beyond the corner of the endzone as a bit of an Easter Egg.

What say you all?

Golden Tate play would be cool. Might I suggest and added touch. Use chalkboard paint. draw the play with chalk. Then clearcoat the wall.

That's basically a straight line! lol

Wasn't there a pretty decent play in the Citrus Bowl last year? :eek:grin:

Haha it was a skinny post, and it presents a good opportunity to diagram the "in-motion" zig-zag lines.

Not really appropriate for this context but I always wanted a painting of a bar scene where the Lep is fighting the Trojan during a bar fight where the Skunkbear, Spartan, Eagle and others are already knocked out cold with the Bruin behind the bar with his hands up celebrating as our lep is about to finish off the Trojan.

Must have for a man cave painting.
