Notre Dame...

And, it's not even close.  The folks at Forbes did some research on the price of tickets being sold in "secondary markets" for the 2014 football season and the most valued college football ticket is to see the University of Notre Dame play.

Domer Mike Lee '09 Fights in Chicago Friday!


Notre Dame alum Mike Lee '09, is back in the ring this Friday night in an ESPN Friday Night Fights at Chicago's UIC Pavilion.  This will be the "undefeated" Lee's (11 - 0) first fight since his six-round TKO of previously undefeated Peter Lawson in April.

If you're looking for something to do Friday night in Chicago -- head over and watch Mike's fight -- my understanding is 20% of the proceeds from this bout will be donated to Notre Dame.
