Quite a few more ND fans where I am staying. I expect 2 to 1 toward ND at the game.
Won't matter....Bama still wins.

Yah I'm sure the NFL fans just travel so well to the games in England also...We are accustomed to outnumbering rival fans wherever we play, being known as one of, if not the best, traveling fan bases in the country. We outnumbered the Texas fans in '09, in Dallas. I don't think anyone has suggested they don't have the money to travel. As far as selling out Dublin, gimme a break...
This is true. Indiana mfg.just as many mobile homes as Alabama. Therefore they dont need to talk about trailer trash down here. People in glass houses......Having known and worked with many men from Indiana, I can honestly say they have no reason to look down on us.
Problem with that is that the majority of Notre Dame fans, or probably student body, isn't from Indiana. In fact, fewer than one half of our student body is from Alabama...This is true.

That's not even close to the kind of change being exchanged by Tide faithful. I've seen some serious transactions that I didn't think were possible...They weren't at the stadium store today to see the Bama fan in front of us pay $1,100 for t-shirts.

When did you fly out? That was the same flight plan we had except storms or something in Dallas forced us to fly Nashville to New York to LA. Just curious if y'all left the day before and missed that issue?I didn't see the attendance figures but just looking at the crowd the Pasadena game was close to 50/50 between Texas and Bama fans. I flew Southwest out of Nashville and at least half the plane was Pasadena bound even though we had a layover in Vegas. I was one of two Bama fans on a plane full of Longhorn fans. The girl who sat next to me was the sister of Texas' third string QB.
You can't tell before you get to the game who will have the most fans. I suspect Bama will have plenty in attendance to cheer the team on.
Astute observation. I've repeated in regards to this matter several times across the Internet. I'm a rare breed as it goes these days: I actually grew up about an hour from campus.Problem with that is that the majority of Notre Dame fans, or probably student body, isn't from Indiana.

The game was on Thursday and I flew to LA on Wednesday. IIRC, that game was also on January 7.When did you fly out?

Yes, it was.The game was on Thursday and I flew to LA on Wednesday. IIRC, that game was also on January 7.
Well then Happy Birthday to you, and here's hoping you get a nice big NC#15 for your birthday present!Yes, it was.
As far as I can discern, we are undefeated on my birthday. :biggrin2:
There are a lot of ND fans in central & southern Florida so it is an easy trip for them just to drive down and take part in the pregame events. After Chicago, central & south Florida is possibly their 2nd biggest cluster of fans.I don't have a clue about what the split in the stadium will be but I suspect that there are significantly more ND fans here than us Bama fans. They travel very well and there is a lot of pent up demand for them
