re: Husker fans turn Dublin into “Nebraska East”

Soul sucking Gingers everywhere you look.

They have great fans. When McNeese played up there over a decade ago they almost beat them and Nebraska fans gave them a standing ovation as the left the field.

After the game they were coming up saying how impressed the Cowboys were

Very classic

That is impressive many went without tickets. How much does the stadium hold?

Aviva is a fairly nice grass pitch, that holds 51K+ for normal events, but tends to be modified to 48Kish configuration for some sports events. Public transportation access is really good; the DART (Rapid Transit Train) stops at the stadium, and Dublin bus had a couple of stops in eyesight of the stadium.

Been there a few times.

I can’t imagine the LSU fan base meltdown over playing a game in Ireland. They don’t like neutral site games 90 miles away in the dome. That said, I’d definitely go watch LSU play in Dublin.

Absolutely if LSU played overseas I would def go see them. The travel agency, Anthony Travel, put together some amazing packages. We toured Scotland and Ireland with our package. Went to the Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo. Took in some Whiskey Tours ( Jameson and Scotland Regional) as well as toured Guinness. Fantastic trip and end with a football game. Weather a helluva lot better than BR.

here along with my gf who is a faithful Husker fan and alumni. There are infinitely more Husker fans than Northwestern fans. The weather here is perfect too. Should be a great day for football.

Wait, you’re there in Ireland right now? Did I read this right? Attabaw!!

How many times has your gf told you to put your phone away?

None.
