This past weekend was very disappointing for a lot of Irish fans. It was a well-fought game. However, there has already been plenty of commentary about that game. I want to point out a much greater aspect of this University.

My roommate and I made the trip to Michigan without tickets. We were standing outside of Michigan Stadium and looking to get two tickets, when a man in his 50s approached us and pulled out a couple. He asked us where we went to school and what year we were. After our answers of Notre Dame and juniors in Carroll Hall, he handed us the tickets. He told us to have fun and to do the same for someone one day when we were his age.

It was the best feeling in the world to walk into that stadium and sit in the ninth row while using those free tickets. We really want to thank that man. We hope that he is reading this. We promise to give another Domer the same feeling one day that he gave us. He showed us everything that is right with this university. He showed us the true Notre Dame spirit. Notre Dame is full of good people like this. We just wish that the rest of the world was more like this.

We once again want to thank that man if he is out there reading this. Thank you for your great generosity!
