Many fans only attend when the product on the field is good and winning. Many fans also attend games that have a good opponent. We do not have a lot diehard or dedicated fans compared to more established university brands.

30K plus isn't bad, actually it's pretty good, for a mid-major in the G5.  Not sure why our fans continue to get a bad rap?

Why is the fan base relatively young, and why is it any different from at other schools?

Our program has only been around for 21 years, only 8 or 9 FBS programs are younger than that.

How many Fans from the early days of Notre Dame football were attending ND games this past year?  Oklahoma, Alabama, Princeton?

No idea, don't care.   Notre Dame fandom has been passed down from generation to generation.   They also span beyond the realm of sports fans.   My Irish Catholic mother - in - law could care less about college football, but knows about Notre Dame and that was passed on to her from her parents .....

The answer is Zero, they have been dead for a very long time.

Only 21 years!  How many years does the average college football fan, buy season tickets, and actually attend the games?

Anyone who's not trolling understands what your point is  ...... Ned just being Ned.

So, does you ICM-I-L watch ND games on TV, or attend games in The Bend, despite her lack of interest in college football?
