It was a relief to learn that the Notre Dame Fighting Irish are still planning on having a nearly-full, if unusual, football schedule this year. Sadly, there is one element of the gameday experience that we know still won’t be coming back as normal: tailgating. There will be no close-up rubbing of elbows between thousands of fans, no taking in that insane carnival atmosphere, no parking lot Kan-Jam or cornhole (well, not the same parking lot - we’ll get to that in a second), no snow football on the golf course in November and, what would have been saddest for my college-aged self: no shotgunning beers on top of a dilapidated school bus.
