He Just Started His Next "Notre Dame Streak"



I learned this morning that my friend Stanley Weber (Tiffin, OH), left for Heaven yesterday at the age of 94.

His devoted nephew, Joe Fretz -- you'll see Joe in the video above -- sent a text to let me know.

This Notre Dame "surperfan" attended his first game inside Notre Dame Stadium on November 22, 1941 -- and for the next 76 years -- Stanley was a fixture at his seat in the front row, on the "east side" of the famed Tunnel entrance.

Well, Stanley Weber just started a new streak yesterday, watching his first game from Heaven's Notre Dame Section.

Stanley -- thanks for loving Notre Dame and Her football team.

Here's some of my posts the last few years about Stanley Weber:
