You know I’m right
It’s probably not as much of a coincidence as you might think. Notre Dame football just pulled off a serious CIA regime-change propaganda type move right in front of your face.
The annual Blue-Gold game for the Irish football team is on Saturday, so as we all eagerly anticipate seeing the quarterback battle unfold (somewhat) before our eyes, Notre Dame had some news to share Friday morning.
“The sale of alcoholic beverages at Notre Dame football, hockey and basketball games will expand to include both premium and general admission seating beginning with the 2025 football season. Fans will have the opportunity to purchase alcoholic beverages at concession stands inside Notre Dame Stadium, Purcell Pavilion at the Joyce Center and Compton Family Ice Arena. This expansion will provide for a modern fan experience, consistent with other professional and collegiate stadiums and venues throughout the nation. Notre Dame is committed to promoting responsible consumption and ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for all attendees.”
Hey — that’s great. It’s something that fans have been asking for for years, and while the elite are allowed to do it in their cozy luxury seats, the peasantry had to pull flasks out of their underwear.
And it’s a good thing we’re all going to be absolutely cabbaged for the game, because the next bit of news might knock you on your ass if you weren’t already half there.

Yup. Notre Dame unveiled the 2025 version of The Shirt, and it’s every bit as bad as it always seems to be. We don’t need to go too deep into it, but it’s another Wal-Mart shirt for the seeing-impaired. I don’t care about Marcus Freeman’s reaction to it, because he knows he will almost never have to wear it on his Greek god-like body anyhow. It’s the same reaction I give to almost any present given to me — and most presents are pretty much garbage.
If you need reasons, here are a few classic ones:
- The green is that terrible dark forest green.
- It’s too busy — like everywhere.
- Multiple fonts.
- Large images front and back.
- Big image on the sleeve.
No thanks — now hand me my $24 dollar glass of Budweiser.
