I was living in Chicago at the time and went to the game with a die hard domer. We had a blast. The lead changed hands many times, and it was a very exciting game. My domer friend was depressed several times in the game, especially during the third quarter when LSU was having its way with the Irish. Actually, it was one of the most exciting college football games I've ever seen. Late I n the third quarter, LSU was going in to score and take a two touchdown lead. However, we threw an interception on the ND 5 yard line that was returned a long way...maybe a pick 6...don't remember exactly. That play turned the tide of the game, and we lost 39-36.
I was exausted mentally after the game, but it was a great game to see live in ND stadium. The small LSU crowd was louder the the much larger ND contingent. Even though we lost, I was proud to be a Tiger in that storied stadium.
I was also at ND stadium in 1985 when LSU beat the Irish 10-7. I was sitting in the seats of a big ND philanthropist on the 50 yard line wearing purple and gold. I was the only Tiger in a sea of Irish. We kicked their butts! That game sealed the deal on the firing of Gerry Faust.

I was there. Their fans were very polite and I felt bad because one of my drunk friends repeatedly spilled drinks on them (unintentionally). Cold as hell.
