[QUOTE="GTMD, post: 178653, member: 1934"] It's an experience that's hard to describe but the whole deal is amazing- they seem to have so many traditions that bind the whole community and the respect they have for God and country is on display. The band coming out before the team and the precision and size of the whole unit followed by the amazing fight song has to be seen to be understood. The older gentlemen who were ushers seemed like grandfathers watching over their grandkids Student section was loud and supportive without being obnoxious or arrogant The whole crowd laughed at the Indian patrolman who gives a please be careful driving speech over loudspeaker at end of third quarter and then finishes with a corny joke that they all dutifully and good naturedly laugh at As we left (after the 91yd td) the fans we passed by almost seemed apologetic and said encouraging things to us and a few asked if had enjoyed ourselves and hoped the experience was good - I was shocked honestly, haven't expereienced that behavior anywhere else especially after a beat down! We went to a restaurant on campus afterwards with our GT gear and the waitress at the end of the meal brought out two huge chocolate chip cookies (had the Notre dame logo in icing but the heart was good) to my two kids. I was so impressed by that- she was a sweet girl in her 20s and to be that thoughtful to the kids of an opponents fans was literally the icing on the cake It was like you were invited as a guest into their house The whole experience turned me from a nominal anti-ND person to a big fan unless they play us.
