We purchased tickets last year the night before the game at Meier's (This chain is not found in New England) for $9.00. It entitles you to attend the Blue & Gold as well as the earlier Alumni game. The Spring Football Festival is sponsored by Home Run Inn, benefiting the Saint Joseph Valley Alumni Club Academic Scholarship Fund. The clerk told us that, knowing that fans come from all over the country to visit South Bend and attend the game, sells them at the discounted price to bring them into the store. An added bonus was that they also sold Notre Dame memorabilia at reasonable prices, some of which was not available at Hammes.
