It's late, too late to write in any great detail. Especially after waiting 45 minutes on the roof of the parking garage for the lower levels to clear out. But here's a few words to enjoy with your Sunday coffee.
Good atmosphere, lots of Irish fans. Trojan band is obnoxious in the "we're going to play non-stop, especially if the other band is trying to play" kind of way. Did get to see them do Tusk at halftime though. Kinda cool. We sat on North side of the stadium, near Trojan band (east) end zone. We weren't behind them, but were about equal with the net behind the end zone. 77th row. Not too bad a vantage point.
One vignette. We were coming from a friend's USC tailgater over to the stadium and the Trojan band was playing their version of Concer on the Steps prior to going in to the stadium. They have a flag squad. As the band was playing a song, two ND fans tried to cut through the flag squad. One of the flag squad girls stepped in fron of this guy, grabbed him, told him he couldn't cut through and sent him packing. She did a great job! Some rules are universal I guess.
More tomorrow.

Ouch. It hurt, and reading the article in the NY Times online didn't help either. I did mute the TV to avoid hearing Brent Mouseburger, Bob Davie and the USC group that calls itself a band but can only play one or two basic tunes.
So what bowl game are you all predicting?
