HuskerfaninOkieland Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Gotta admit, this is pretty cool. Ireland is one of the countries I would love to visit. SI.com ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- Notre Dame and Navy will play in Dublin, Ireland, in 2012. Navy athletic director Chet Gladchuk says Aviva Stadium will be the site for the 86th meeting between the Fighting Irish and Midshipmen. The $410 million stadium opened in May and has a seating capacity of 50,000. Navy and Notre Dame have met every season since 1927. This season they will play at the New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., on Oct. 23. Quote Link to comment

Street Novelist Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Europeans don't like American football. It's been documented over and over again. You know what Ireland likes? Soccer Quote Link to comment

whateveritis1224 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Don't think Europe has a sustainable interest in Football, but I'm sure a couple games a year over there (less than 5) would keep them interested enough to sell the games out. Quote Link to comment
