Navy - Notre Dame, 2012 [TOUTING IS FORBIDDEN AND WILL LEAD TO PERMABANS: #205 #628]

That's great that there'll be high school football on too. I've always been a follower of the NFL but my dad has always preferred watching college football to the NFL, he still loves the NFL obviously, and he keeps an eye on high school football so he was delighted to hear that the matches would be on here.

Is there any chance that the other high school game will be in Parnell Park...I know I'm being greedy looking for 2 matches in Dublin

Another thing, a mate of mine lives in Germany near Heidelberg and he said that he knows a heap of Americans there that are coming for the game. Apparently there's some US base there. So I'd expect it to be a sell out!

3 venues, 6 games, 12 teams. i would imagine one of the venues will be in Dublin but I would have expected Dublin, Cork, Galway or something, now that one of them is definitely Meath who knows where the other two will be!

NFL yes but I'm not sue if that's the case at college games. As they are students and you have to be 21 to drink legally in the States I'm not sure if you can drink at college games.

I've never been to a game over there so I'm just guessing but it wouldn't surprise me if games were dry

Some stadiums are dry but the majority aren't.

Heidelberg is the US army's headquarters in Europe.

Notre Dame Sherman oaks will play Hamilton in Parnell Park I believe

I also understand Tallaght Stadium will be another of the venues to be used

Can't wait for these games in parnell park now. It's right on my doorstep so couldn't ask for better.

Also volunteer in the bar attached to the ground, Anything special that you think would get the punters into the bar after the game on friday evening ?

Cheap drink ? Hot dogs ? free hot dog with your cheap drink ?

Would the Irish crowd like an american band for the night or would the american crowd prefer a more Irish band do you think ?

Do you think many people would come in for a drink between the games ?

Could be a long evening in parnell park ?

Dodge

They're high school kids, so drink might be a no-no

ryaner777

Not for the kids, more thinking of the supporters.

The On Sale date has been removed .

Where would the best place to sit in the Aviva? Never been to a game before

I presume sidelines rather than either end, Are you better of lower down or a bit higher up to get a better view of the game?

brick tamland

Says tickets go on sale 20/03/2012

Presale from tomorrow

Any codes would be great :-)

Adamcp898

I'm gonna assume it's too late to register for this new pre-sale so a code would be greatly appreciated

Spongey1975

Wouldnt mind getting a code for this too.

Noticed the 20th March general sale date on ticketmaster which goes against the March 5th date mentioned previously. Would much prefer to sort it out this weekend to avoid the confusion

bonezman

Any codes available for this presale? I wouldn't mind taking a crack at it either.

Hammerp

Who got these codes ?

I don't know for sure but I remember around the time of the first pre-sale, there was something along the lines of the second pre-sale being for members of other European American Football organisations so maybe it's for them?

IrishFan2

I know I am late to the game on this one but I too am looking for presale codes. I thought tickets were going on sale on Monday and now disappointed to know the wait is longer and the possibility of tickets is smaller. Would love to head to this match with my husband who is a big American Football fan for his 50th birthday...any help would be appreciated. codes please??

donglemouse

just another grovelling request for pre-sale codes if anyone has any info, thanks

bobby wade

assume this is the BAFA & EFAF presale

goreyguy

anyone have any details on price etc.

JonnyF

don't suppose anyone has a code for the presale they'd feel like pm-ing me?

fionna_rua

All ready to book this morning, but sale date is changed to the 20th. Really hoping to get some decent seats. So yet another who would really appreciate a code for this pre-sale

Hope ye all get good seats

Domer

Surely you have contacts over there that could hook you up?
