Notre Dame Football Game


Last year my Grandpa picked me and my family up in his airplane. He flew us to Indiana to watch the Notre Dame vs. Navy football game.

For the Two days before the game we toured the Campos with my grandpa who's a professor there. We watched a Notre dame volley ball game, hockey game and we went to the pep rally. Both my mom and dad went to collage there so they showed me some of their old class rooms and dorm rooms. On the game day we went to a couple tail gating party's where there were some X Notre Dame football players there. We also watched the marching band. The game was a blast to watch although Notre Dame lost to Navy for the first time since 1963 it was still a fun trip.

Man, that sound like a blast. It's pretty cool that your uncle just picked you guys up and flew you there. I think that it's very cool that both of your parents went there, and could share their memories with you. It must have been a bummer, Notre Dame loosing their first game in 45 years. But at least it was a fun trip!

Cool. It sounds like you are a hard core football fan. Notre Dame and Navy would be a fun game to watch. I wish my grandpa owned an airplane, too. My dad used to have one. But we sold it and then it crashed in the ocean.
