NDCD Football Game Watch Party is this Saturday! Watch the Irish take on the Huskies of Northern Illinois University in the first home game of the 2024 season. As always, the location will be Tom’s Watch Bar at Coors Field.
Kick off is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Denver time.
There will be prizes and surprises! See you at Tom’s on Saturday.
Please arrive 20 to 30 minutes before kickoff so that the staff can get our dedicated space turned over from prior patrons. Our dedicated space at Tom's does not open until 15 minutes prior to ND kickoff time. Also our space is open seating so you may be sharing a long table or a high top with fellow Irish fans!
We do have a drink special- $1 off on all beers during our game watch time. Please ask your server when you order!
WEEKLY PROGNOSTICATION FROM NDCD DIRECTOR BILL WEBB, ‘88BA,’92JD
WHO: unranked Northern Illinois University (1-0) at AP number 5 Notre Dame (1-0) (Notre Dame Stadium, cap. 77,622)
WHEN: Saturday, September 7, 1:30 p.m.
WHERE: Tom’s Watch Bar, 1601 19th Street, Unit 101 Denver, CO 80202
TELEVISION: NBC
PARKING: Atrium Garage, right across the street, 1890 Wynkoop St, Denver, CO 80202. You can also reserve and pay for a spot right now on the Spot Hero app, which is a really impressive piece of technology. (Atrium is not on the app, so I park at the Dairy Block Garage, a block away.)
ROCKIES GAME: The Rockies are AWAY in Milwaukee doing their thing.
BRING: Money for the traditional door prizes, and a designated Domer-driver; those $1 off 22-ounce drafts for our club don’t drink themselves!
LIGHT RAIL: three blocks from Union Station! Several people, including seniors, have commented that the walk from Union Station to Tom’s Watch Bar is very easy:
Last week v. Texas A&M: Wow. What a great result. Notre Dame marched into College Station and impressed the heck out of all of the college football experts, winning 23-13. Offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock knew that his talented but really inexperienced offensive line would not likely be able to hold off the Aggies’ pass rush, featuring one of the best defensive lines in the country. So, he decided to lean on the running game, and the quick passing game, and it worked well. Notre Dame rushed for 197 yards, which is great considering the circumstances.
