Frank Tripucka's Grandsons' First Visit to ND


Nicholas and Shane Tripucka -- grandsons of former Notre Dame and Denver Broncos QB Frank Tripucka (Frank is in the Broncos' Ring of Fame) -- made their first ever trip to the University of Notre Dame yesterday for their Uncle Kelly's Ring of Honor induction.

Nicholas and Shane, sons of Chris Tripucka (who played football at Boston College) grew up in Texas.  Shane was an All-American punter at Texas A&M -- unfortunately we didn't recruit him. 

The top picture (Shane on left and Nicholas on right) is of them holding their Grandpa's actual game jersey #8 outside Notre Dame Stadium.

A special moment during a special weekend for the Tripucka family.
