One man’s mission to share with the world the fine art of cufflinks.
Each blog a different pair and each blog a different story. Read on in this series….
Your scribe receives the occasional comment (a big thanks to you Cufflinkme!) on this blog and yes I do take note but in this particular instance I must make amends. Having previously mentioned Alma Mater links, a close friend and a graduate from another major educational institution felt that there was an imbalanced and biased view taken by this blog to the Ivy League of the east coast…. I therefore present to you today the Fighting Irish links of Notre Dame University of Indiana to make amends.
We mentioned seating capacity of stadiums in the Calendar blog but your scribe was completely overwhelmed when watching the Notre Dame Fighting Irish V Navy in 1985. The home stadium seats over 81,000 seats and the annual Navy game is one that ranks amongst the years sporting highlights…..better than the Superbowl as far as this scribe is concerned. For the record Notre Dame smashed the Navy 41-7 that year and there wasn’t a single bar in town that wasn’t celebrating until the wee small hours of the next day….if not the next week!!!!
Today’s “Fighting Irish” links are pewter four leaf clovers with the word Irish embossed and come from an old dear graduate friend of this great University….Go you Fighting Irish!!! They are worn with a Saigon tailored shirt and my own Alma Mater neck tie.
