fandom.

Fandom. You either have it or you don’t. And, if you have it – it can be deadly; it can be magic. Tricky, tricky. It effects your entire weekend’s schedule of events. A “W” or “L” will determine your mood/state-of-mind/demeanor for the entire week. Fandom can predict your wardrobe colors, and your living room décor. It can turn your house into one that flies flags. It can make you new friends, or lose others.

There’s nothing like football season to bring back fandom to an extreme. And, our house definitely has the bug. While we live in the Emerald City – home to the Seahawk craze, our football hearts will forever beat in South Bend. It’s all about the blue and gold, the leprechaun, a Catholic-treasured tradition, the Golden Dome, and a home to Mr. Finch and me at a much younger time in our lives. In our house - it’s the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. All. The. Way.

Our poor kids – they never even had a choice. They were born and bred to cheer for the “good guys”. Here are a few of my favorite ND fandom moments from throughout the years. 

It’s Saturday. Go IRISH!
