The ND GO IRISH BLOG reached the 80,579 UNIQUE VISITOR mark at 7:09 AM EST this morning -- when a Notre Dame fan in London, England logged onto the site! Some may recall, this was a stated goal -- to fill every seat in Notre Dame Stadium (capacity; 80,579). Well, we accomplished this on January 25, 2011 -- exactly 366 days after the blog's launch on January 24, 2010.
During this past year "and a day" -- Notre Dame fans from all 50 states and now 127 countries have made the ND GO IRISH BLOG one of their "must visits" on the web. THANK YOU!!!!
The next goal is to exceed the 109,901 unique visitor mark -- which just happens to be the "stated" capacity of the University of Michigan's football stadium -- the largest seating capacity in football.
