I watched more than half the season from my office chair with my headphones on. Made it to three games, though, and ALMOST to Oklahoma.

Where were you all for each game?

 

Navy: Woke up at 8 a.m., very excited for the season to start. Texting with a large group of guys and some former players during game. Saw a couple buddies on the sideline during the broadcast. Since I'm usually at work on Saturdays, this early morning game gave me a chance to actually watch an ND game in my Notre Dame man cave. Usually at the games or at work.

mostly at home on domerdomain in Front page chat

 

Pittsburgh I was in the car traveling to and from my nieces Gymnastics meet and at a Chuckee Cheese for my nephews b-day party. Listened to the First Quarter, 4th Quarter and overtime.

At home every game in my Chair , white #5 jersey on with my family includimg my little 1 year old son Braden wearing his ND pajamas every single game this year.

Navy: Caught the first quarter, was on the radio for the second and most of third, then caught the rest at home.

 

Purdue: Watched on my phone at work. Freaked out when I lost my wireless connection.

 

Michigan St.: At home, alone with a 12-pack of Octoberfest.

 

Michigan: At a wedding, but was able to sneak into a bar across the street to catch the end.

Stanford: At home with the in-laws, and they heard me swear more that day than they had in the previous eight years they've known me.

 

BYU: Work

 

Oklahoma: At home, with the only ND-fan-friend I have around my house. He took his shirt off when Brindza put ND up 10. Hugged me awkwardly when Theo scored.

 

Pittsburgh: Covered the state cross country finals, so listened to the first half on the drive to the in-laws afterward. Suffered through the second half and overtime there. This time, they got to see how much I could drink. Christmas is going to be awesome this year.

 

Boston College: At home, as calmly as I can remember watching a game.

 

Wake Forest: Didn't see a snap of this one because I was covering hockey all day. Followed a long on Twitter.

 

USC: At home, in semi-isolation.

 

Jan. 7, I'm watching with my dad for the first time this season. I worried about changing anything up, then realized that I didn't have a pattern at all this season.

Every game except Oklahoma at my house with a ton of Domers.

 

OKLAHOMA~~At the game. Tailgating with all the Irish. Treated like a celebrity with interviews on two tv stations and the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Had the time of my life. After the game in the stadium with my daughter and the Notre Dame band and my other daughter and the OU band. Best day of my life (oh, and the day I got married was pretty good too).

The only games I watched from home were Navy and Miami. Otherwise I was in Lôs Angeles New York Seattle Tucson and Palo Alto in stadiums hotels bars or airports.

 

Craziest moment was watching the end of the stànford game with some professional referees and they told me the end zone call would not be overturned because they could see the line judge waving his arms to end the play

 

I was never so relieved (in a sports sense) in my life.

Navy: Sprung out of bed at 6 AM like a kid on christmas morning. I usually spring out of bed around 8 like a kid on christmas morning. Watched in my living room.

 

Purdue: Invited myself over to my buddies house to watch football all day after berating Direct TV for shitty Service. (Satelitte Dish went out)

 

Michigan State: Living Room - Switched to Comcast. Bought a 2nd TV so we could multi TV with a tivo XL4 DVR which is soo much better than the one from Direct TV.

 

Michigan: Living Room TV - I was pretty drunk. FUCK MICHIGAN.

 

BYE WEEK: I went to Athens, GA to see what SEC Football is all about. I'm not going to lie here.. I was impressed. These people love their football no matter how ignorant they are of the sport or their team. UGA - TENN very good game as well.

 

Miami: Living Room TV

 

Stanford: I was at the game.. actually got 10 seconds of fame on TV when Fowler mentioned my sign on air. After the late night game the previous week I heard gameday was going and bought 2 tickets immediately. Told the woman she had to cancel her plans.

 

BYU: I was at the game as well. A very boring affair to watch live. I'm not going to lie..

 

Oklahoma: I watched this game in half of my Halloween costume.. kinda weird since I went as a ND football player, lol. The night was kinda screwed up because I don't miss a snap of an ND football game EVER.

 

Pittsburgh: Actually watching the rerun of this game as I type this post. I remember my friends came over.. They kept freaking out and I never panicked once, except when Cierre fumbled in the endzone.

 

Boston College: Living Room again

Wake Forest: Living Room again. I contemplated buying my NC ticket @ 875 + fees after this game because Barkley was likely not playing the game next week.

 

USC: Living Room again.

 

This season was different only having four 3:30 games.

Living room for all 12 although I was like a cat on a hot tin roof during USC.

 

I always go outside multiple times to take a few puffs on my pipe during a game and keep up on the TV I have in the garage but during USC I almost drove my wife crazy because I got up every few commercial breaks due to how wired I was. I had my moments during our close calls, especially the OT games but with the stakes being what they were out in Cali, I was wound tighter than a garage door spring.

Watched every game from the comfort of my own home except for the Spring Game and when I went to the Purdue and BYU game.

Navy: Dad's House

 

Purdue: Can't remember, tried to block this game out of my memory after the outcome of Purdue's season

 

Michigan State: Dad's House

 

Michigan: My living room

 

Miami: My living room

 

Stanford: Nephew's second birthday party, crowded in a single room with non-Notre Dame fans watching it on the smallest TV possible, couldn't hear a word.

 

BYU: I attended this game with Dad

 

Oklahoma: I was at my wife's grandma's 90th b-day party in Sterling, Illinois. Her grandma does not have a television so she gave me permission to leave, make the hour drive back to her parent's house in Davenport, Iowa and I watched the game from there.

 

Pittsburgh: Only got to watch the first half from my living room and then my wife and I had an event at church. From there I received play-by-play text updates from my dad and once I knew it was going into overtime, I left the event and listened to the finish in my car on the radio.

 

Boston College: My living room, I may have fallen asleep during this one

 

USC: My living room - Dad and I watched it together and celebrated the relief of finally making it back where we belong

Navy: Watched the game at home in a haze still reeling from the loss of my brother-in-law

Purdue: Home

Michigan St.: Went to the game on my 40th birthday

Michigan: Home

Miami: Home

Stanford: Home

BYU: Home

Oklahoma: Home

Pittsburgh: Home - almost murdered my brother-in-law who crashed the party

Boston College: Home

Wake Forest: Went to the game

USC: at The Pheasant Plucker - a local pub for a buddy's 40th birthday. If he wasn't in my wedding party, I'd probably have skipped
