ND Fans have sold out to Clemson.

That's a good point. I figured they were always sold out or nearly sold out.
I absolutely agree with you. I make no suggestion that piped in music is going to be abandoned. But a lot of people think it detracts from the overall game experience.
I have had a number of people tell me that they will not go to night games at ND because the late starts get them home in the early morning hours.
Thats probably the last people you need at a big game anyway. If your worried about what time you get home, I doubt your up screaming every time the other team has the ball. Your probably a “hey, sit down, I didn’t pay to standup” kinda fan.
Then people like you need to stop bitching about large numbers of opposing fans in the stands. I am explaining why that happens.
Please learn the difference between "your" and "you're."
Cincy wasn't a night game and they had a ton of fans at the game
Clemson didn't have many fans there.
ND fans showed up. And were loud. It was great
Never have. I sell my tickets all the time. ND stadium and campus is a gift. It’s Mecca.
But when I do go, I stand and yell. When I go to a night game, I don’t care when I get home.
You can bet your ass I stay because you’re an ass. 😜
Getting to this thread a little late but I want to add 1 more thing. I think the biggest reason it took so long for this particular primetime game against a top opponent to sell out was because, at the beginning of the season, ND made the decision to require anyone who wanted to buy ND-Clemson tickets to also buy ND-Marshall tickets. A lot of fans simply were not interested in doing that, and by the time the ND-Clemson tickets were untangled from the Marshall game, ND was already 0-2 and fan enthusiasm for the rest of the season was pretty low. Had the ND-Clemson tickets gone on sale during the preseason without any other requirements, I think there's a good chance that game would have sold out then when season optimism was at its highest, or at the very least they would have sold a lot more tickets than they initially did.
I try to get to 2 games a year. It’s tough with flights and hotels. Post Covid flights are Uber expensive.
I ask every cab driver, waiter or hotel person have they been to a game. The answer is always no, too expensive.
Face value for big games Is 225.00 for lower tickets I believe. That’s double most big time schools tickets.
It’s set up a bit for blue bloods and traveling fans. Season tickets for 2 lower level seats is around 8k. That’s not cheap.

Imagine that there are a hell of a lot of people who have different ideas than you do. It's true.
That's fine. I was asked why people are not attending the games. You may think the music is great. Not everyone does. It's not really a "get off my lawn" situation. It's more "I don't want to deal with that so I just won't show up."
If you think playing rap music during timeouts is hurting attendance at college football games then you might just be 117 years old.
Just curious, what was the Civil War like in person?
By all accounts ND had a fantastic home field advantage.
Bloody as hell. Why do you ask, whipper snapper?
What are you talking about? There weren’t any more Clemson fans at the game then other fans the usually come to ND.
"But we should be happy that recruits are skipping the game"
They had nearly 60 recruits at this past game --
Not quite accurate. There were plenty of opportunities for Clemson tickets through the lotteries. When they didn’t sell out, ND connected the second game to help the poor response to Marshall. (And it just wasn’t Clemson- Marshall as the only choice). After that Marshall game, Clemson tix were available straight up

The OP hasn’t returned since he started this thread. He has been full of shit in his posts the past 6 weeks. I called him out as soon as he created the “My brother saw ND fans selling out” narrative ….because it’s an impossibility. And anyone that watched the game saw that there was no orange wave. Clemson had 10k fans at most
Come on man, all they showed on the TV was the student section waving their pom poms time after time. Never showed any other part of the stadium, never!
They showed the whole stadium. It wasn't bad at all. Normal for an away team. Nd fans showed up
What about the light show? Were Clemson fans participating?
What about the raucous crowd after every big play for Notre Dame? Were Clemson fans rushing the field too?
Again, some of you just love to bitch.
100% False. Showed pictures from the plane above on at least 2 separate occasions as I just finished watching the replay.
and I was there, you weren’t…but you do love to bitch from the cheap seats as usual
