I’m much more cynical than you are. Notre Dame is good at a lot of things and making money – lots of it – is one of them.

Not even 12 months. Remember, they replaced the turf in the middle of this past season.

I don’t do snark often, but when I do … #kaboom

I guess I just don’t see the value of grass turf that has only been in the stadium for at most 12 months.

I wonder why they’ve never sold it before.

And I would have more happy about it if the money was going to a good cause/charity … but I’m not telling anyone NOT to buy it. I’m just saying that I’m not a fan.

Nicely done.

A: They’d be silly if they didn’t. I posted the first day the announcement was made that they would do that – it’s a no-brainer.

Q: “How much money will they make?”
A: Lots

Q: “Why will people spend this kind of money for something like that?”
A: Because they can and they want other people to KNOW they can

and/or

Because it seems like a good idea.

Nobody’s making anybody buy it.

I’ll put it in my yard, likely, as I think it’d be too hard to nail to the wall. The dirt will probably be crumbly. I’m a little perplexed, though, at the injury disclaimer that comes with: WARNING. THIS PRODUCT MAY CAUSE INJURY TO INCLUDE BROKEN ANKLES, RIPPED KNEES, RUPTURED TENDONS, AND SHATTERED DREAMS. DO NOT USE WITHOUT DUE REGARD FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS.
