As most of us are now in some form of COVID-19 quarantine, I must say the days are absolutely blending together. To make matters worse, the past three weeks I’ve had added focus on additional charity work, including #HLSMadness for Feeding America and Extra Life United (both of which raised over $2,000).
With that, I totally forgot the original date of the now cancelled Blue-Gold game was supposed to take place this Saturday at 12:30 PM EDT.
Loyal Readers and Viewers, have no fear, I did not forget the promise of a Blue-Gold sim to replace our favorite glorified practice. We will give you virtual football on the exact date and time live on Twitch.
We know our sims can’t completely replace visiting Notre Dame on a game day, but we sure are going to try…so much so that we are opening up a Zoom that will serve as the “crowd” audio for the game. We’ll even open it up an hour early for a virtual tailgate (whatever that may look like).
Look, if SNL can pull off a whole episode via Zoom, we got this.
You can add the Zoom invite information via Google Calendar by clicking here. We will also have the Zoom available via Twitter and Discord as well.
We hope this can give a (very) small taste of what we will all be missing dearly this Saturday. Let’s have some fun and enjoy some (virtual) ND Football!
