Percentage of the stadum that will be wearing green and gold... probably at least 50%, I suspect.

20K ND fans and 20K Duke fans?

JE beat me by a minute or two as I was typing. Great minds and all that stuff...

I'll be there. My first Duke football game since 2013 Duke v Texas A&M. Hoping to exorcise the country Texas echos of "Johnny Football" playing on a perpetual loop in my brain...

Folks,
Does anyone know if we are permitted to bring stadium blankets into WW for the game? I looked at the A-Z guide and could not tell from that.

Yes to blankets. No to bags/purses larger than 5”x8”x1”.

Those are diktats about parking, principally.

I'll believe Duke got concessions and bathrooms working correctly for a capacity football game when I don't immediately hear DBR people complaining about how we've screwed up college gameday yet again.

I'll predict 25K Duke and 15 Irish. (eyeball test of course...)

I am surprised at this, considering the cold weather and the fact that the Irish's season pretty much ended last weekend, after getting pummeled by Michigan.

plenty of ice water will be on hand, you can count on that! The good news is that anything they run out of (and they will, who knew people were coming?) will be crappy anyway. I always eat and drink before entering, pointless depending upon WW concessions.

Meh...football fans aren't going to give up on their team just because they aren't going to be in the championship game. They are still ranked, and are still going to be in an elite bowl.

At Amherst College games, you can bring in blankets tainted with smallpox (New England history joke).
