ND at Stanford Gameday Share

[TDHeysus]

I just wanted to share a few pics of the Stanford game...I put up one video as well; the video starts just before the team runs on the field, and then ends just after the coin toss.



Video Link - Notre Dame taking the field in Stanford Stadium - YouTube

As we were walking into the stadium, we happen to walk upon a ND Alumni Band, but notice the police officers on the left side of the pic. What you cant see off-picture (i asked my GF to take the pic, but she was mesmerized by the site of The Lep) was the police officers giving a breathalizer test to the Leprechaun!!

Here is the Leprechaun running away after passing the breathalizer (already on the other side of the ralling)

Pre-warmup huddle (I know the ICON camera sometimes gets in this huddle)

Ruffer warming up just before the 3rd qtr. He was kicking when the net wasnt up, and the footballs were landing in the stands. One landed about 7-8ft in front of us (for real, 7-8ft, I could almost catch it. it rattled around some seats like a foul baseball)

Against my better judgement, I put up a pic of ol' TDHeysus at the Game:

they were actually all nice ppl; sitting in between them was a younger guy, i think he may have been a stanford student, but was an ND fan. It was the first ND game for the older lady, her husband looked like an ol' ND game-vet. Everyone around us were cool ppl.....Except my GF did say there was a lady sitting behind us who was complaining about everything. from the helmets, the standford cheerleaders, the public address, to the stanford band (I actually happened to agree about the stanford band; I thought they were horrible)
