Ireland

I have dyed my skin old gold, and will be going naked. Old school baby.

Picts? (intentional)

I'm noticing a lot of love for BC in this whole deal. The College Football Ireland site loves them some BC. I totally understand - BC is probably the most Irish Catholic school in Div 1 outside of Notre Dame.

That's okay. We'll go to the game, be super polite, crush their football dreams, drink their excellent beer and come home.

Boston College has a Dublin campus. It is next to St. Steven's Green a few blocks south of Trinity College. May explain some of the love.

I have a strong feeling that local folk will appreciate our fight song a helluva lot more than BC's (see what I did there?), what with being an old drinking song, references to drinking and saying to hell with things.

It's a real opportunity to endear the I in the hearts of the Irish.

Landed in London this AM. Great first day and ran into a few Tech fans already.

And we are now under 7 days from kickoff. Keep the momentum going at home and abroad everyone!

You did what I should have done. I switch planes in London and could very easily have spent a few days there before going on to Dublin. As it is, though, I leave Tuesday night and arrive in Dublin on Wednesday. Have fun in London

We arrived in Dubln today and immediately hopped on a plane to Edinburgh, where we will spend a few days before returning to Ireland. Interestingly, our Delta flight from ATL to DUB was about 1/3 GT fans. I hope we have a huge turn-out next Saturday!

For those there or headed there I suggest watching this to help train your ear for the accent.

In dollars that's roughly 150 bucks for a hostel. Dang. That's up from a normal cost of 25/night.

Hell, I got a 4-star hotel roughly halfway between Trinity College and Aviva stadium for less than that.

Days keep moving so slowly! I fly out of Seattle Tuesday morning, and it couldn't get here any slower.

I think it was about 7 hours.

I don't think that was our flight. I certainly never heard our fight song. Nice touch by Delta!

Should I gouge my eyes out?

Have any of you tried Air BnB for a place?

You talkin' to me? Nono,, I'm not going to the game.

I hope you guys/girls post pictures of the trip in this thread, so bums like me who can't leave school can live vicariously through you
